Everybody suggests turning off email scanning, for a very large body of
evidence that shows it times out mail servers and provides no added
protections,

I've had exactely the same problem as you've been describing (including
slow
running backups).
I run Windows XP Home SP2, IE 7, OE 6 & Systemworks 2006.
I have narrowed the problem down to when I used "Liveupdate" to upgrade
to
"Symantec Network Driver" Version 6.0.6.604( I used Goback Safe mode to
eliminate all the other upgrades during liveupdate):
Symantec technical support weren't brilliant. They gave me 3 options to
try
and the only one that appered to work was turning off e-mail scanning! I
have
responded to this and am awaiting their reply!
Meanwhile, I'll try to uninstall the April ms updates and see if it solves
my problem as well.
