Amavis isn't a virus scanner. Amavis, like MailScanner, is a tool to integrate 
your choice of AV's into your mail system.

Personally, I'd recommend bitdefender as a second AV engine. Last I checked they 
had a free linux command-line scanner that MS can use.

install it, and in MailScanner.conf and add the appropriate AV's to your "virus 
scanners" line:

ie:

Virus Scanners = clamav bitdefender

See the comments above that line in MailScanner.conf for details.
