Issues with VMware Fusion after installing Sophos Anti Virus for Mac

Hello first of all I want to thank you for offering this anti virus :)

The problem could be unrelated but after I installed Sophos AV on my macbook pro VMware Fusion had issues starting up windows, and than it froze. Any ideas? 

Thank you.

  • I just loaded SAV 9.0.7 on OSX 10.9.2.  When I have the on-access scanner turned on, my Windows VM (VMWare Fusion 6) hangs then shuts down.  When I turn off on-access scanner then the VM runs just fine.  I excluded the vm directory from the scan but still the same issue.

    Is there an alternate solution to this besides turning off on-access scanner?

    Thanks.
