Free scanners:

Here's a new one from Microsoft. Never tried it, so can't vouch for it. =
But, looks good visually. Free, so worth trying.

The other popular online virus scanners are:

Trend Micro at http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

Panda Online scan

Try adding more RAM. That's where the speed are really coming from. =
While a fragmented drive affects the speed, its usually not that intense =
unless you use apps that absolutely need the speed.
