   Because us Linux sysops are hosting file servers, that contain files for both   
   Windows and DOS. Running a scanner on received files is a good idea.

   It has nothing to do with Linux. I know Linux itself does not need antivirus,   
   but any Windows or DOS files hosted on it should probably be checked. When I   
   run antivirus here, it's only on received files. I'm not scanning the entire   
   system because it's not needed.   
      
   However, a Linux system can host infected files and pass them on to another   
   system without being affected. So as a courtesy, these files should probably   
   be checked before being passed on to your peers.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
