I run InterCheck virus scanner on my Linux machine. It's quite nice, although
I don't find many virii, if any. I haven't had one line from InterCheck in
my syslog about a virus:)

It scans for alot of well known virii. You can check it out at
http://www.sophos.com

There is a version you can download, and really has no restrictions. I
think.... I haven't ran into any.
