So the recommendation is just turn it off?

Or upgrade to 6.7.0.

You might need to manually install 6.7.0. Netgear releases firmware for manual installs first, and puts it on the "check for updates" server later.

you do not state what OS you are running, but if you are running 6.6.1 , that OS build has been documented to have broken the antivirus software. Do a search and rest easy....... if 6.6.0 or older, there have been no reports of issues with that AV engine

    Unlikely I will update to 6.7.0, even when it becomes an official release. Will wait for 6.7.1 or later.
