    No, since programs don't actually run on the Chromebook, they just display in the browser, you don't need an antivirus.

    No, I just attended at Chromebook Webinar, Chrome OS: Secure by Design.  Google it and you should find it in the next few days or similar.  Chromebooks come with built-in security.

    @Woolybear your question doesn't seem to have anything to do with the antivirus question. Please use the Ask a Question button for your question. Include the full model number (something like CB315-xx-xxxx), what you are seeing, what you expect instead and what you have tried so far to deal with it.
