I have been using a (paid for) copy of PC Cillin for a few years now, and
have always found it to be excellent.

They update both the virus pattern files and basic engine very frequently
(automatically) and it is often more up-to-date than the checker we use at
work. Customer support is excellent, too.

Cheers,
