I have a Trend Micro Office Suite mandatory at work, including the laptop which runs The Bat (1.x) for my private mail. I receive a lot of spam, and some of it is virus-infected. The problem is, that when the Bat stores this virus attachment on disk, the OfficeScan pops up saying it's a virus. For some reason TheBat cannot continue operation (I guess because OfficeScan takes over the file for quarantine or smth), and the message is not deleted on the server. This means that every 5 minutes (my polling period) I get this message and have to delete the e-mail manually on the server. Plus, all our admins receive a virus warning. Hence, I have been asked to remove The Bat. Just my experience - those problems may be obsolete by now.
