Hey Adam
I think that you shall use cron for the job. I don't know much about it, but there are tons of information about the subject on the Internet. / Martin Soendergaard

Check your cron log. >> How do I make it run daily if it sin't already ? Say 01:50 PM daily: 50 13 * * * /full/server/path/to/sophos.sh There is an active sample of root's crontab at /etc/crontab so go read it before I have to say RTFM to you next time.
