A commercial program might help, but if it were me, I'd just download 
F-Protect, which is a free-for-individual-use virus protector, scanner, 
and remover.  I used it to clean out my college computer lab, which had 
about three different viruses, one of them (Stoned-Monkey) on all the 
computers.  This lab had been foolishly depending on a commercial, 
store-bought virus package, which is silly unless you're willing to buy a 
new antivirus every month.

F-Prot is updated every month, and I depend on it.  Scan, the few times 
I've downloaded it (I just wanted a second opinion) agrees with it in 
giving my system a clean bill of health.
