microsoft anti-spyware is really great and you can set so it automatically checks your computer and stuff. you can set it to your email so that whats sent isnt a virus or anthing, its pretty cool. im not sure where you can get it but im sure youd be able to find it on the internet.
good luck with that!

Well, this is a good, free antivirus program that can scan if AFTER you put it on your computer. There's really no way to scan something BEFORE you download it - it needs to be on your computer for the program to scan it!

It's called "AVG Anti-virus Free"
