Interesting. We are just finishing up our Sophos roll-out. I sent this on to my team to keep an eye out for any server 'weirdness', but according to the article Sophos has already released a fix: http://www.sophos.com/support/knowledgebase/article/112752.html <http://www.sophos.com/support/knowledgebase/article/112752.html> By the way James - we are about 80% complete with swapping out Symantec in favor of Sophos. One of the best decisions I've made in quite some time. If you have any specific questions about Sophos, feel free to contact me off-list. Jim

Could cause hangs as much as every 24 hrs. Z Edward E.
