Why are you insistent on open-source?

Well anyhow, the only open-source AV that I’m aware of is ClamWin.
It is *on-demand* only, meaning that it will scan and remove, but you must update it and scan manually, and it gives no *real-time* protection.

> ClamWin Antivirus: http://www.clamwin.com/

If you would like to install a *real-time* antivirus, I use and recommend Avast v4.8 Home Edition:

Edit: Kaspersky as suggested below is an excellent program, but is not free.
