Mount it with ntfs-3g, scan it with clam after updating the virus signatures (freshclam) and then remove or copy away infected files. This is exactly what I did. I cant live without systemrescueCD The USB installer is also awesome. Alternatively, it may be possible to dd the partition and pipe it to clam (not sure if this will work with a whole partition instead of a file) using something like: dd if=/dev/sda1 | clamscan - Alternatively, you can use Knoppix and Fprot, bitdefender and clam. Or, you can use the many LiveCDs and Live-USBs that Kaspersky, BitDefender, et al are producing these days.
