That's like saying you don't need to wear your auto seat-belt assembly's
shoulder-belt because you're wearing the lap-belt...but the buckle is
broken!
The aviso to disable email scanning assumes the AV app's running in the
background with up-to-date definitions. In such an environment, scanning
provides no additional protection (and even Symantec says it's not needed:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/docid/2001082921552806).
What problems might arise due to scanning?...

RE: Norton LiveUpdate, on 22 Jan-04, Symantec sent this alert for NAV users:
<paste>
Support Advisory for products updating to LiveUpdate 2.0
When you run LiveUpdate for your Windows-based Symantec program to update to
LiveUpdate 2.0, and do not restart your computer after the installation is
complete, the program's Automatic LiveUpdate feature may become disabled.
You must restart your computer to re-enable Automatic LiveUpdate. If you
restart your computer after completing LiveUpdate, you do not experience any
issues and Automatic LiveUpdate will remain enabled.
For more information on this problem, read the document "Automatic
LiveUpdate may be disabled after updating to LiveUpdate 2.0".
http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/vURL.cgi/liveupdt1
</paste>
IOW if AutoUpdate isn't working, NAV's AutoProtect isn't autoprotecting you.
Train your sales staff how to use NAV properly and respond to prompts.
