I used to use F-Prot worked real good, if you want a GUI you can get QT-Fprot. I did scans weekly but after a year or so I gave up, as stated above theres really no need to have an AV in Linux, Yes there are Linux/Unix viruses, but someone running Win with a totally locked down system will have an infection issue LONG before you have one without.
