It depends on how you configure auto-protect mode. The reason that the download stops is that NAV detects the virus and prevents TB from accessing the infected file until it has completed the required action. If NAV is configured to ask what to do with the infected file, TB cannot complete processing the message until you have responded to NAV. Because NAV is holding a message, waiting for your input, subsequent messages cannot be processed until you respond. However, if you configure NAV to automatically quarantine or delete the infection without asking, it can deal with the infection without waiting for your input, and thus should not prevent TB from completing the download.
