How can we have clamAV automatically scan the images after they are uploaded (to catch any viruses as quickly as possible)?
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.
If it is not possible to set up clamAV like this, how can we set up a cron job to scan the image folders and domain / server ?
You create a cron job, to run at whatever schedule you want, that calls Clamscan with the options you want.
