Why would you need an Anti-virus for a Linux box? There are a few vendors which provide anti-virus solutions for Linux platforms. But, the anti-virus signatures are targeted for Windows viruses and are of no use on Linux.
Still if you are interested, you may find free version of AVG and Open Source ClamAV.

NAME
ipcs - provide information on ipc facilities
SYNOPSIS
ipcs [-asmq] [-tclup]
ipcs [-smq] -i id
ipcs -h
DESCRIPTION
ipcs provides information on the ipc facilities for which the calling process has read access.
The -i option allows a specific resource id to be specified. Only information on this id will be printed.
Resources may be specified as follows:
-m shared memory segments
-q message queues
-s semaphore arrays
-a all (this is the default)
The output format may be specified as follows:
-t time
-p pid
-c creator
-l limits
-u summary
SEE ALSO
ipcrm(1), ipcmk(1)
CONFORMING TO
The Linux ipcs utility is not fully compatible to the POSIX ipcs utility. The Linux version does not support the -b and -o options, but
does support the -l and -u options not defined by POSIX. The portable application shall not use the -a, -b, -o, -l, and -u options.
