There are literally thousands & thousands, so many I do not even know the count, but to answer your question - Not just one AV - Spyware product finds everything. That is one of the main reason's I love to use linux. One of the other main reason's is the stability - you start up your computer and generally speaking it just runs everyday - Day in and day out without problems. Have you tried to find an alternate solution to your problem by trying to find an application that runs under linux? I run Ubuntu, and I like using VLC media player. This is a very nice app. that plays allot of different codes. I use it for watching movies playing Flac, Ogg, and MP3 files as well.
