You need to manually scan a file in order to detect a virus or spyware. What type of AV software doesn't have realtime protection????

ClamWin is meant mostly for server-side applications that need virus scanning functionality - e.g. web sites that let people upload stuff. You use ClamWin to scan the file. Most AV programs don't have any sort of public API.
