I have some really old machines and want to run a virus scan on them. They only have about 64mb RAM, 333Mhz processor, etc. I don't want a whole suite, just something light weight and effective.

For Windows 98 and upwards you could try Clamwin. Note that is does not do on-access scanning. You need to manually or schedule a scan of your drives.
Personally, I vote for "Don't give the user Administrator rights", "Apply current security fixes", and "Don't run unnecessary services or software" for a low-impact anti-virus solution.

these aren't user computers, the owners only allow "system changes" rarely, and they don't run unnecessary software.– scottmAug 5, 2009 at 15:53
dr.web seems to be so.

indeed. Just checked the docs - both 4.44 and 5.0 should work just fine with 64 MB RAM Aug 6, 2009 at 12:05
