I realize this is a side point to the discussion, but one reason to do
on-access scanning is the possibility of a new virus getting past one
version, but being trapped by the next. If you are an early target of a
virus, it is possible you got the virus before a signature update.
Scanning on access helps catch the viruses you already have.
I have so many spare MIPS I can spare one or two to feel safe(r). And
this laptop is not even fast.
