Free Virus Scanners

Wife's computer acting funny
looked at startup programs with autoruns, see some suspicious items with no descriptions, try to rename them and can't, good indication of virus/spyware
Scanned with AVG, found 1 trojan, updated sigs, found another (only partial scan here)
Scanned with Portable Apps ClamAv found 4 viruses, but it doesn't default to delete/quaranteen anything, weird (scan of c:\windows\system32)
Scanned with AntiVir found & deleted 37 viruses! (full scan)

OK switching to AntiVir.....
