I'm also looking around for virus solutions on Linux/390. This is what I
have found so far :
1. OpenAntivirus project (www.openantivirus.org)
They created a java based opensource antivirus scanner and also some other
tools like interfaces to samba and mailservers.
Advantage: opensource, disadvantage: java, I don't know if this is the
ideal way to run a virus scanner on a lot of Linux images.
2. Clam antivirus (clamav)
Also opensource, commandline scanner, uses the virus library of the
openantivirus project. Written in c, only thing what is missing for the
moment is daemon functionalitty.
3. Sophos
Commercial antivirus tools. Although there isn't any news of it on their
website, a distributor of them told me they got Linux/390 versions on
request.
4. RAV Antivirus (GeCAD)
Recently annouced mailserver antivirus tool for Linux/390. I don't know if
it is also usable for other antivirus needs.
Thats it, let us know of you find other things.
