Actually this would be the best choice, since aside from introducing local
privilege escalation vulnerabilities such virus scanners are pretty useless.
Why not try ClamWin which works as an unprivileged process, combined with
WinSnoop which triggers scan activity on FileChangeNotifications?

Argh, it should read "WinPooch". Though it does not only use change
notifications, but also some IAT hooking. :-/
