Mick,
   At the upper left of the page you linked to there was a link to ask
for a free license for personal use:

http://www.bitdefender.com/site/Products/ScannerLicense/

   Do any folks here regularly run virus scanning on Gentoo boxes?
Reading through the reasons you might want to I still see lack of root
access and quick fixes for security problems at Linux advantages. Only
the fact that Linux is more widely used every day is a reason to be
concerned about anyone trying to attack. (I think.)

   Do good backups of /home.

HTH,
Mark
