You do not need to install anti-virus software on any Linux system, as it does not get infected. Having said that, you should not connect your browser to the internet as 'root' or 'superuser' that way you avoid any spurious software being installed.

Normally software is installed via a package manager like Synaptic. It is important to download all the associated libraries that are required in order to make a piece of software function correctly. A download manager like Synaptic will check for all the required packages to be downloaded and installed.

If you find some software that is not listed by Synaptic and decide to install it independently then you run the risk it failing because certain libraries may be missing. You need to be mindful that all software has dependancies so it always best to use a package manager that will check for dependancies and download all the required libraries.

linux installation files are different, they are manage by package. so when you install a package use CLI that will be more familar.
