sophos anti-virus works with jaws.  Liked it better then nortenwww.sophos.com.
They have evaluation versions which you just have to keep downloading.  It's a
little more technical but performs better and doesn't force you to keep a scann
schedule like norten.  New ides are in a zip file every few days or so there's
an automatic checker for these things which you have to download and configure
seperately.  New full versions come out every month.  Some parts are a little
more technical (hand editing of config files).Of course there's a automatic
checker.  The only problem was when I would upgrade from one version to the
next, I got an illegal operation error because of a conflict between it and
jaws.  For the record, no virus program isolates everything.  The cheaper your
security is usually the more value you'll get out of it.  If your school or work
gives out something for free that's probably good enough for what you're doing.
