From many incoming msgs - Confirm 

"This message may contain a virus  (it does not) or there is not enough disk space (there is plenty) .  Skip this message?    [Yes]  [No] "

TB is unusable until this is answered. It stops you RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE of composing when you realize your typing is no longer being registered in the message.

I can't emphasize too much how bothersome this is.

Would really appreciate some help. This has been going on continuously for months. Bill w3com@bellsouth.net

Can you send a screenshot and can you check if it is coming from TB or you have an Antivirus solution that is messing with your e-mails?

Maybe when you Compose, you are typing and it auto-saves a Draft, and your AV software scans it and blocks you.
