Well what a struggle. I had my system all set up and then, once you thought it was all done it did not work. Well the thing that did not work was being able to create calendars in Lightning. The main problem seemed to be that Lightning required some libraries that did not install if you acquire the plugin from the Mozilla add-ons site or Thunderbird add-ons
However, it is not lost, all I needed to do was to install libstdc++5 with the following line
sudo apt-get install libstdc++5
Now the plugin seemed to work fine, for me at least!

Being safe nowadays means that you need to have some form of antivirus available on your system. Linux users for years have not worried about this but being naive is not an excuse.
So, to install the solution that works with Thunderbird, you need Thunderbird and an add-on called clamdrib
To make this work under Ubuntu you need a few more steps…
You need to install clamav, which is easily done with:
sudo apt-get install clamav-daemon
..or..
sudo aptitude install clamav-daemon
You also need to make one change to the /etc/clamav/clamd.conf file from the default set up on Ubuntu, adding the lines:
TCPSocket 3310
TCPAddr localhost
You can now either reboot or just stopping the services
sudo /etc/init.d/clamav-daemon restart
sudo /etc/init.d/clamav-freshclam restart
This should now work nicely..
