    Hello, Chala

    Yes, it can be used along your anti-virus - however pay attention to this quote from the Sophos knowledgebase page.
    It should be re-downloaded for each new use.

    You're welcome.
    The advice given on the Sophos forum is for the old version SRVT to be un-installed first using Programs and Features.
