Anti-virus for Linux - is it time? Will it ever be?

Anti-virus is ineffective.  It deals with a symptom while ignoring the
real problem.  That is: attack vectors on a system.

By the time anti-virus does its job your system is already compromised.
 IMHO a compromised system is NEVER trustworthy and I would not continue
to use it.

I don't run anti-virus on windows or linux because I'm very careful
about what services and code I run and keeping up to date on patches.
