I use ClamAV.  I like to use Linux to scan for MS virii, as even if they
find one, you don't have to worry about accidental execution.

Be sure to run "freshclam" before you run the scan, to make sure that
you are using the latest defs.

Has anyone used a linux box to scan CDs or flash drives for M$ virus?
What
software would you recommend? RPM based preferred.

I have customers that submit files to print from CD and flash drive.
Want to
make sure they are clean before using on M$ based graphic workstation.

Free is better.
