There are lots. Try a Google search for "Unix Virus Scanner" or "Linux Virus Scanner". Even Kaspersky has a Linux Version.
Also, Clam AntiVirus is Open source and very popular.

http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/download/packages/packages-other/ - The first link is AIX. You can also download the source code and build it yourself if you'd like, it's not that difficult.

1. The AIX binaries at the link I sent earlier may work for you. 2. If they don't you will have to build from the source code. For that you would first have to download and install GCC package for AIX.

As kervin mentioned, Clam AV is a very good scanner that should compile fine on AIX. I think this is your best (and easiest) path. However, I seem to recall from my AIX days that it doesn't include a c compiler by default -- if that's still the case, you'd have to grab a pre-compiled binary version of Clam (which, for AIX, seem very old and are probably useless) or install gcc first (which is always good to have anyway.)
Failing that, you could use install Samba on your AIX box (same compilation issues apply) and use that to share the directory that the files are saved in, then mount that share on your Windows machine, and scan from there with Kapersky.
Or, you could use the native NFS services on your AIX box to share the directory that the files are saved in, then use Windows Services for UNIX to mount the share on your Windows machine, and scan with Kapersky.
