Hi neelie,
Whereabouts are you right clicking on the file that you want to scan? If you're right clicking on the file within LW's library then you won't find the option to scan - you need to find the file outside of LW
Which version of LW are you using? If you're using LW 4: Go to LW's library, click on Saved Files & then click Explore... your saved folder will open. Right click on the file that you want to scan & you should see the option to scan with one or more security programs.
If you're using LW 5, find the file outside of LW by using 'locate on disk':
Using LimeWire 5 to find your files on your computer using 'Locate File on Disk' tool
When you right click on the file outside of LW, you should see options similar to the screenshot below
