SAV and TimeMachine

I installed the SAV for Mac today.

After installation, I made a local drive scan, and It found 4 threats.

I deleted the infected files.

After a while, I got alert from SAV that it denied access to the files, which had been deleted but still in my TimeMachine backup.

Although everything seems alright now, SAV interfered TimeMachine's operation.

Will this corrupt my TimeMachine backup?

  • +1 for having to do a new Time Machine backup after running a scan!

    Sophos detected a windows nasty in a spam email that had also been backed up to my network attached Time Machine, it "fixed" the problem by removing my old backup, the next time Time Machine ran it started sending 400+GB over wireless.. Grr.
