Free Antivirus Engine?

Question

Hello,

I want to do some malware detection on Windows. anybody knows any Free or OpenSource Antivirus Engine with on access protection support? I found ClamAV and ClamWin and decided to make a GUI Front End with C# and somehow add OnAccess protection support with System Wide Hooks. but I think it's too difficult to do so...

So, would you suggest me a good Library, Engine, SDK, etc. to perform malware detection tasks on Windows? I'm very comfortable with managed code (C#) but you may say that the managed code is not suitable for these things due to some performance problems but it really doesn't matter if it's the only problem.
