I'll be getting an amp in a few days time, and was wondering if there is software that will alow me to use the laptop to effect the sound from the guitar, then take that sound out via the headphone jack to the amp.
At the moment I plug the electro acoustic into the laptop's mike jack via a 1/4 inch to 1/8inch adaptor, record something then listen to it with my headphones, but I'd like to add effects as I'm playing!
Is it possible?

not really.
I have a recording set up where I can plug in my guitar to an interface. the interface outputs to a pair of monitors.
using the software on a recording program set up on my computer I can play clean to the Input and add all kinds of FX and listen with the monitors.
there may be some kind of freeware FX on line. I wouldn't know how to input with an intermediary program.
good luck.
After dl the free version of guitar rig and buying a cheap usb guitar chord, I no longer take my amp out. It's not eve worth it. GR has so many amps, cabinets effects style settings song settings its impossible to use them all. I can take full advantage of the software for 30 minutes but then I have to close and re-close. I grab a song off the internet and open it on one tape deck interface and record my playing on the other. Most times I just play along with backing tracks. Also has a built in tuner
To add to this, far as I know there is no real time effects. Most have to be used after the base clean recording
But surely if my Yamaha keyboard has a built in DSP surely there's similar for any instrument plugged in!

If you're on Linux there is Guitarix and Rakarrack for realtime effects processing (and you can apply effects for monitoring while recording clean to re-amp http://ibmalone.blogspot.com/2011/12/re-amping-with-guitarix-and-ardour.html . If you've got an iPhone or iPad you can get iRig, now if an iphone can do realtime effects then...
Under Windows there is AmpliTube3 (for which there is a free version with some free effects and you can buy more), Line6 Pod Farm can probably do realtime (though I haven't tried it, Pod Studio can do), Guitar Rig 5 (think this is the one PeaveyUSA is talking about, though the FAQs for Guitar Rig player - the free version - say it can be played live) and probably others.
Might also be worth checking out some of Gibson's suggestions http://www.gibson.com/en-us/Lifestyle/Features/Top%205%20Guitar%20Amp%20Modeling%20Soft/ , though the list is a bit out of date, e.g. Revalver is now on version 3 (and there's now free/demo version).
i this and i that! Wish there was something for us Android users! I mean I can record using the built in mic with the Soundcloud app on my smartphone so...

Couldn't you use something like amplitube or GR and just bypass the software head and cabinet, and just use the software stomp boxes? You could run the guitar to the PC, then from the PC to the amp. In effect, your PC would become a bunch of pedals.
