Scanning files for malware

Doing file uploads on a site.  Using CFFILE (switching to CF8 file functions soon).  Per basic security protocol I'm uploading the files into a directory outside the webroot that does not have execute permissions.  I would now like to run an antivirus scan of the file.  We have Symantec AV 10.2 on our server now (Windows server 2007) but I'm open to using any other product.  Anyone running scans like this?  I cannot figure out how to set up a bat file to make Symantec scan a particular file (I get the cfexecute part but not how to write the bat file).  It doesn't appear you can force Symantec to do that any more.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
