Since no one is really answering your question...  :-)

There are a couple of ways to do this on Garnett, each with their own pros and 
cons.  Here are the ones that I am aware of:
1. Register an alarm to go off every second or couple of seconds.  
2. Register for the sysNotifyEventDequeuedEvent notification.  (This gets 
called basically every time that an event is handled anywhere in the system.)
3. Run in the callback of a sound stream thread.
Let me know if you need more explanation on any of these.

Hope this helps!

Subject: Running a Background Procsess On Garnet


I am about to start development on an Anti-v program for the Garnet OS, my 
first project under this OS.  I would like to know if anyone knows how to 
run a background process.  I know Cobalt has stuff in the APIs to do this, 
but I have not found a way to do it in Garnet.  I need to have the Anti-v 
program scan all incomming data.  I need it to be able to scan bluetooth, 
SMS and email everytime data is sent to the device through one of these data 
channels.  Any ideas???
