Valve's new anti-cheat seems to be working pretty well. System (the maker of OGC) was saying that it was completely useless, but so far since VAC has been out it has stopped every version of OGC within days. At this rate the cheaters can't possibly keep up, I think that it's only a matter of time before they give up.
With regard to HLGuard and CSGuard, I have found that they are buggy. For example, when attempting to change your name on a server and using a % in order to have spaces (e.g. Counter%Strike%Player), CSGuard will automatically cause your Half Life to quit. And one of the latest revisions of VAC kicks people off with no cheats installed -- this has happened to me. But eventually these bugs will be fixed, and pretty soon admins will find that they no longer need to run HL/CSGuard to reliably catch cheaters.
