I'm not sure I follow you here. If they're sharing complete BYOND games, I don't see how this would work but it definitely doesn't seem desirable, nor could a virus scanner detect anything with it. If sharing just snippets of code that could be included in the main game, this is outright impossible. If they're sharing snippets to trade and pass around for each other's games, you could do that but again it wouldn't be scannable by a virus scanner because they don't do DM code. And if the users are passing around actual .exe or .dll files, running those on the server is a very very very bad idea. Although the short answer to your question is that automatically invoking the host's AV scanner isn't really possible (not under anything but highly controlled conditions anyway), I can't help but wonder what you're trying to do.
