Unfortunately, F-Prot is not Free/Open-source. According to what I could
find on their site, it's only free (as in "no cost") for personal
workstation use. It's for this reason that I recommend not using it at
all. However, the final decision is yours to make: if you want to use
proprietary software, you have the right to do so (presuming, of course,
that you obtain it legally, etc.).
