I run f-prot at home to scan for Windows virii.  Several have been sent
my way that it's caught (I run Norton Antivirus on the Windows systems
anyway).  f-prot is free for personal use, is updated continually, and
doesn't seem to be cause any issues at all yet.  I've got it hooked into
sendmail with MailScanner.  The MailScanner web site has info on
multiple anti-virus engines that it supports.  Check them out at
