Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition

[Lucas]

Hey guys,

I'm aware of the issue of "Sophos scans slowly when scaning a Boot Camp partition", but when I scan my Boot Camp partition the whole system crashes. (The screen overlays with grey and it pops up a screen that says "You must hard reset the computer".

Anyone else have this issue? Aside from the "just don't scan it then", does anyone know a fix or workaround?

(I'm sure it's the Boot Camp partition causing the issue because the scan runs fine when I scan everyelse but that partition...)

Just curious... what happens if you run chkdsk on the bootcamp partition?  This smells of NTFS corruption to me....

Is the Boot Camp partition:

a) read-only, using Apple's driver; or 

b) read + write, using e.g. NTFS-3G Community Edition?

If (b), what version of MacFUSE is installed?

[Lucas]

The whole partition is 'read-only'. Their are no special drivers installed and I do not have MacFUSE installed. It's a very basic Boot Camp install of Windows 7.

Thoughts?

I'm having the same issue on my brothers MacBook.
