You’ll find it at http://www.sophos.com/products/free-tools/free-mac-anti-virus/ ...recommended.

I do NOT recommend Sophos' free AV... because to get ANY Mac malware they TURN OFF the system level anti-Trojan protection so their AV can find some. DO NOT USE IT!

Interesting. Got a citation for that? I see no way for the system-level anti-Trojan scanner to be disabled by a third-party application, but maybe I've missed something.
