You don't even need an anti-virus on a *nix computer, unless your running a mail-server and want to make sure your not passing on infected attachments to windows users.

Nice list!
As for linux firewalls, yes there are desktop linux firewalls such as Firestarter, which was listed in the initial post.
There's also gufw firewall, available via Synaptic.
Another cool tool I have is w3af, web attack framework, also available via Synaptic.
Thanks for the share!

While I always go to Sectools.org for the top 100 list, this is still a great compilation. Nice job putting this together! It's sad to say that most H-F members won't get any use out of it due to using winblows. Very, very sad. Again, nice job putting all this together like you did!

Great post seems like you definitely should have added metasploit and cain and abel to the this list. Other than that you chose very good programs.
