Other uses include a "On access" seems to be exactly the wrong moment for a virus check - that way you are getting the check delay at the worst moment, when the user actually want to use the file. Consider doing virus checking on write only, viruses spread only at that time. Virus checkers that run during idle time s also a good idea. Helge Hafting
