  I don't think any anti-virus program will catch everything, there are too
many
new virus's for any one company to keep up.

Run at least one of these free online virus scan programs,

RAV http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan/

Panda: http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/

BitDefender http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/license.php

Good Luck,
