Scan Local Drive Question

When I installed Sophos, I thought it would be a good idea to scan the whole Mac once. That was days ago. It has barely moved. There are over 5 million items, of course, but still, this seems unreasonable. It is slow whether I do nothing or continue to work. I leave it on all night to let it run in peace, but it has not progressed far by morning. Is there any way to speed this up? 

Right away, it identified 3 threats. I removed them as instructed, but they still remain in the main window. Should I delete them?

I am using the latest Snow Leopard version on an iMac with 4 GB ram. It is also slowing down everything else I do.
