For OSX, I've used fswatch: https://github.com/emcrisostomo/fswatch
Works well for that case.
Example: /usr/local/bin/fswatch -0 $HOME | xargs -0 -n1 -I {}
/usr/local/bin/clamdscan -i --move=$HOME/Documents/Quarantine {}

Says it can do Windows as well, but I've never attempted it and looks like
it's needs Cygwin, which I wouldn't want to play with.
