Testing AVG on Ubuntu, and learning some scripts

tested the AVG scanner to detect EICAR test virus, passed with flying colors

sample command-line in terminal:
avscan Downloads/*

recursive scan, from the current point down to the Downloads folder.

Also made some 3-liner scripts (and launchers) in my desktop:
scanner:
#!/bin/sh
sudo avscan /media/NANO/*
read -p "Press Enter to continue" nothing

updater:
#!/bin/sh
sudo /usr/lib/AntiVir/avupdate --product=Guard
read -p "Press Enter to continue" nothing
