AVG and Avast are free
Dont forget to try cleaning with adaware or spybot too.

Kaspersky Webscan
Trendmicro Housecall
Panda Activescan
Symantec Security Check
BitDefender Online
McAfee FreeScan
Command On Demand
F-Secure Online
Arcabit Online
If you have a single file that you are suspicious about I would recommend uploading to
Virus Total, it uses multiple different antivirus programs and gives you results in seconds.
