Safe Site to do a free scam for Malware

Can someone tell me a safe site to go to for a friend to scan for malware? I believe she has some sort of malware affecting her email address and is being picked up but outgoing servers and removed. She has always had CA Internet Security Suite running. But she has problems somewhere that I don't think CA can or has not picked up. Need a good safe reliable site that has a free online scan available.
Thanks

If those aren't enough:

Kaspersky has one that is extremely thorough - detects but does not clean:

F-Secure includes rootkit detection and cleans as well:

Thanks for these sites. Used one and may run them all.

Actually Kaspersky has been continually tweaking their online scanner for some time.  With KAV 6.0 SOS they changed UI and added removal features (finally).  Consistently good detection.  Highly customizable for an on-demand scanner if you're not using Kaspersky as real time protection.

Cool! I'll have to try the SOS.
