This company provides AntiVirus software for Windows, FreeBSD and
Linux. If you server is heavily loaded then they are also providing a
daemon AVP that loads its databases only once when you start it and
then you can connect to its socket and pass data to check on viruses.
It requires less computer resources. It is not free, but you can
download demo version that will be able to detect viruses only but not
disinfect them...

Hope it helps.
