Long story short I'm helping to recover a PC from a virus infestation. 7-zip was used to backup all of the critical files (My Documents, etc.) so that they could easily be removed from the infected machine.

When I rebuild the machine, I want to scan through the archives before I unpack them. To my knowledge Symantec Corporate (the A/V tool that my friend has a license for) will only scan inside ZIP archives.

Anyone got any ideas?

Clamwin has support for .7z files.
