The anti-virus has (should have) a part that is resident (running all the
time). This will catch any virus you try to open or save without having the
addition of email scanning to slow down email and screw things up.

I've definitely read of users having problems with ZA's Mail Safe. Anything
scanning email will slow it down and cause problems.
