I have default windows defender, but didnt even know its antivirus lol. Is there any antivirus installed by default on any popular linux distro? What do you use?

I feel like antivirus can just annoy me when trying to crack something, but maybe defender protects me and im not aware.

    My paranoid me has no concerns in regards to Linux but I am running pyload in an LXC under proxmox to download you know what for my Windows PC.

    So before using the files I would like to have them checked.

    Therefore I just finished my setup.

    Debian 12 LXC unprivileged, running pyload through openvpn tunnel. clamav does daily checks in the download directory and sends me an email if anything is found.
