Uni of WA uses something called RAV antivirus and it has performed well,
at least from a users' perspective.   While not open source, the licence
cost for Linux, at US$29 is a lot less than the kilodollar range
:-)   (Other products, mainly CA's InoculateIT, is use on the desktops to
guard against the floppy-borne and other virus attacks.)

Frisk's F-PROT (http://www.f-prot.com/products/fplin.html) has a Linux
version that is free to personal users.  Again not open source.

HTH,
Denis
