Stop reinventing the wheel, fix the root cause of the problem, ie the
viruses!

So what you basically want is an ipcop box with two "green" interfaces
and one "red" interface, with the two greens isolated from each other.

Now IPCOP does not do this out of the box, but I think (again subject to 
correction by CraigF ) that monowall might.

Craig's earlier response was based on him thinking you wanted two
connections to the internet with differentiated routing based on
destination i address, but tats NOT what you want, so lets see what he has to 
say about the clarified situation.
