Is there an API call which will request the anti-virus software to check a specific file (same as right-clicking a file in Explorer and choosing Scan)?

http://stackoverflow.com/a/3295709 might help. It describes the COM interfaces that are available to do so. – Ken White May 09 '14 at 16:30

There is nothing in VB6 for this, so any answer will be generic for Windows. – Deanna Aug 12 '14 at 13:23

You should look for a command-line interface. If such a interface exists, you can run it with a special command-line using CreateProcess.
