Sopho Anti-Virus for Mac stops and crashes during scan when it updates in OSX 10.8

I had the other problems with Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac when I upgraded to 10.8, but those were fixed with the update on Aug. 10, 2012. However, Sophos can not complete a scan if update comes up during the scan. The program crashes during that update.  I have scanned successfully for both local scan and custom scan of my MacBook Pro drive if I turn off the wi-fi to the computer. I don't have to turn the wi-fi off itself, but just to the computer.  Now, sometimes it will update several times during a scan before an update causes the program to crash, but usually it is the first scan. Is Sophos looking into this?  I believe I saw this problem with updates mentioned in some thread, but I can not find it now.  I am using version 8.06C.  I did not have this problem before updating to 10.8, so I am sure this problem is due to an incompatibility of Sophos with Mountain Lion.  Without a fix, I can still set up a scan in the middle of the night, but I have to turn the wi-fi off to my computer before retiring for the night. Thanks for any help.
