Does anyone know of software that can integrate with clamwin to enable real time scanning besides Spyware Terminator and Winpooch?
Thanks,

You will not find much beyond WinPooch that integrates with ClamWin. I believe Spyware Terminator comes with a version of Clam for Windows, but I don't know if will have the latest version, since Clam/ClamWin are frequently updated now. Version 0.93.1 is supposed to be out tomorrow.
I'm now using WinPatrol, which is free. It is a "security monitor" that monitors several critical areas of a computer, including startup programs, new services, active-x, Internet Explorer browser helpers, hidden files, and even cookies. The free version doesn't actually monitor in instantaneous real-time, but you can set it to monitor each tab/item anywhere from 1 minute to 30 minutes. If you select 1 minute, you get pretty close to real-time. I've used lots of "behavior blocking" software and this is the most unobtrusive one I've found.
I think ClamWin works well with a behavior blocker. Threatfire from PC-Tools also has a free version that monitors behavior in real-time, and it's pretty good, but it's a tad more obtrusive than WinPatrol.
Either WinPooch or Threatfire with a good real-time antispyware program (Windows Defender is free and pretty good) will provide you with pretty good security, although no security software is perfect.

ThreatFire has a built in PC Tools anti-virus for free now, which would supplement ClamWin nicely.
