We runned into similar problems with McAfee's TVD. It's a problem for
most
virusscaners to do on-access scanning on network drives. It's not directly a
problem from the virusscanner, it's more a problem of the network drivers of
WinXX. While transfering the file from the network the data is scanned. Some
scanners seem to be to slow on scanning. So WinXX thinks the connection was
broken or hangs. As a workaround: disable all network drives for on-access
scanning. McAfee's newest scan engine seems now to work correctly too.

> I've installed RedHat 6.1 on a Pentium 233. I'm using samba 2.0.5a
which

> NT 4.0. These two PC's are connected to the same network. I've
> configured Samba to share the home directories on the Linux System. I'm
> able to reach my own homedir from NT. Within NT I've assigned this
share

> background monitoring enabled. This software installs these services:
> - F-SECURE AVP
> - F-SECURE Filter
> - F-SECURE Gatekeeper
> - F-SECURE Recognizer

> I'm also using Netscape Communicator PRO 4.7. Recently I've moved
my
> Netscape-profile to drive L (my homedir). Then I started Netscape, but
> it hangs. I'm able to kill Netscape, but then I can't reach drive L

> AVP's background monitoring, I'm able to start Netscape without any
> problems! Now I'm using Norton Antivirus 2000. When I turn on
Norton's
