McAfee AVERT Stinger (ver. 2.5.4)
Author : McAfee
McAfee provides a free anti virus tool called STINGER that is a good secondary tool to detect and remove specific viruses.
As stated on McAfee's website, "It is not a substitute for full anti-virus protection, but rather a tool to assist administrators and users when dealing with an infected system.", but that having been said it is worth having for certain instances, and it IS freeware.

AVG (ver. 7.323)
Author : Grisoft
Antivirus is an absolute without question necessity! And AVG is fantastic (not only because it is freeware and that updates are free) in it's functions. I love the shell integration (making it so simple to scan specific files. It can also be set to scan your Outlook Express mail - NICE! (note - the screenshot is of ver. 6)

avast! 4 Home Edition (ver. 4)
Author : ALWIL SOFTWARE
avast! Home Edition is a superb antivirus program. It has a ton of useful attributes, like - automatic updates, shell integration and email scanning. Much like AVG, avast! requires registration, but as with AVG I gladly gave up my email addy (ok actually I gave a 'throw away' addy I use for such registration needs).
