PB no longer supports HL, it hasn't since september (due to values lack of interest, check out www.punkbuster.com for details). There are a few detection programs out there that currently do simple checks (like checking for the existance of certain files or cvars). Check out "cs-guard", "jedinocheat" (a hacked version of Admin Mod) and others.
I will be interest to see what valve does (and when, common guys!) as in the end its not possible to win.... (you can only make it hard) (read "Secrets and Lies" by Bruce Schneier for an explanation, page 320, chapter 20).
