You'd need to get your software to do that. Between accepting the
upload and doing anything with it, call Clamscan to scan it.
Alternatively, and I don't know if this is possible, I believe some
OSs have facilities to monitor a filesystem for changes. If you can
get the system to tell you when a new file has been created in your
upload directory, then you could scan it then - but of course you may
need to wait for the upload to complete.
You're looking for 'inotify'.
