There’s not much to say about Winpooch apart from the facts: “Winpooch is a Windows watchdog, free and open source. Anti spyware and anti trojan, it gives a full protection against local or external attacks by scanning the activity of programs in real time.” It hooks into Windows to let you prevent certain processes from making changes to system files rather than the signature method used by most commercial spyware products. It also integrates with ClamWin to provide virus protection. I’d be interested to see how well it works, but regardless it’s nice to see some more open source action in the Windows security sector.
