ClamWin Free Antivirus is based on ClamAV engine and uses GNU General Public License by the Free Software Foundation, and is free (as in freedom) software.

Yep it is. From the site I linked.

I did the same yep same Clam I never used it but I am sure it is good as most Unix, Linux systems use it . Here is one I recommend to most people as you boot it up without starting your system that way it can find and delete files also has many other uses such as reset Win passwords and yes it does work lol.

Here is something new I just found AVIRA Anti Virus. I am downloading now it comes as an ISO or a Windows EXE file.
Thought it might interest you.
