Virus scanners for a windows files


I'm planning to setup an FTP folder which will be public facing, this will mostly be Windows document (e.g .doc files, .exe files etc) I do not want my folder to have any Windows based viruses (or linux ones for that matter), thus I need a way to prevent infected files being distributed via my FTP. Can anyone recommend a linux virus scanner which will remove windows viruses. I have *some* experience with clam, but nothing else.

try "BitDefender for unices"
it's free for personal use, - but you do need to register with them.
