Microsoft does not directly make virus scanning software. There are many third-party options for virus scanners that work with Microsoft products, however. AVG is the most popular of these.

How can you find out that a certain file is a virus and how can you manually delete it?

To find out if a certain file contains a virus, scan it with a virus scanner. To do this, load up your anti-virus program (e.g. Start > All Programs > AVG 2011 > AVG User Interface). Then start a custom scan, or scan for specific files or folders. This depends on what software you have, but all anti-virus programs are similar. In the options for the custom scan, find your file and select it to be scanned, or select the folder that is in in. Start the scan, then the program will give you the answer. As for manually deleting the file, DON'T! Viruses tend to hide themselves in important system files that your computer needs. Deleting it manually may cause more damage to your computer than the virus itself could.
