Why doesnt Clamwin use features that the program moonsecure uses. The source code for moonsecure is available to use.

Aside from being written in Delphi which is not compatible with the languages ClamWin uses; the "real time" protection is weak. It uses attempts to globally hook the windows APIs "CreateProcessA" and "CreateProcessW" to determine when a new process is launched which is not even close to the same thing as using a kernel driver to receive notifications of process creation.

Check out their forum too, it's pretty "interesting."
