The BitDefender folks publish something called "LinuxDefender" which is
nothing more than a Knoppix variant with the latest BitD buried within.

It stores the signatures and unpacker engines on a unionfs volume at boot
time and can therefore be dynamically updated.

Some time before, I'd stitched BitD into Helix (www.e-fense.com) without
much effort. The net effect is LinuxDefender, but it's easier for me to
just maintain one tool for our use.

I've found BitD to be better than most native-Windows antivirus software.
Much of that, of course, is having the OS out of the way while scanning.
