  • Since Parallels runs your Windows software inside a virtual machine, there should be no issues as long as Sophos isn't scanning the contents of your Parallels volume.  Problems only arise when two or more AV solutions coexist on the same file system(s).  If they're logically in different places and aren't scanning the same file set (or each other), then you should be fine.
