clamwin and winpooch?

[Greymod]

Hi, I have an antivirus already installed, I am wondering if it'd be alright is I just used winpooch with it, or Could I just run winpooch by itself since I already have an antivirus.. Do I have to install clamwin? would it be alright if I did?

you could install it and see what happens when you do these tests.

this first one is a safe trojan test

and this is a virus test

if clamwin stops the virus and winpooch the tojan tests then maybe it's OK to use by it self. isn't there a winpooch forum?

I just installed it w/o Clamwin, I'm running Norton IS 2006
... It sounds like an open source version of Winpatrol.
