    If you see a blue shield, you're looking in the Dock while Sophos Anti-Virus.app is running.  The main component of SAV runs in the background all the time, scanning all files you access as they're accessed.  By default, there is a black shield with an S in it in your menu bar (next to your sound volume, WiFi, date and time, spotlight, etc. icons)  if this background protection is running.
