We ahve McAfee VirusScan 8.0 Enterprise spread like a virus over our
network at work, and it doesn't appear to cause any problems with
command-line client or TSVN.

But it does slow down operations a bit as it by default checks all
files. I've excluded my Projects directory from it and that solves that
problem as it nolonger checks any .svn folders

(But on machines where I haven't excluded this, I still don't get
problems described).

Cheers

Russell
