With regard to the need for Sophos, see my Mac Malware Guide. There is Mac malware out there, and Sophos will protect you against it quite well, but Mac OS X does a pretty good job itself as well. One class of borderline malware - called adware - is becoming increasingly common, but most of it is not blocked by either Sophos or Mac OS X, unfortunately. Thus it's more important to know how to protect yourself.

Little Snitch is a mixed bag. On the one hand, there has been malware that short-circuited its own install process if Little Snitch was present.. thus, just having Little Snitch installed prevented installation, because the hackers behind the malware knew that Little Snitch would prevent it from working properly. On the other hand, some malware has been known to completely disable Little Snitch and go on with its malicious business unimpeded.
How can I turn off Little Snitch temporarily? Open the Little Snitch application from your Applications folder, open Preferences General and click the Stop button to turn off the Network Filter. Any network traffic will then be allowed, such as if Little Snitch wasn’t installed at all. Little Snitch allows you to block outgoing connections; the MacOS firewall only blocks incoming connections. Handy if you're running some untrusted program and aren't sure what it's going to do, or if you want to disable a program for updating itself, or if you want to prevent access to a specific resource.
None of this malware is still viable, due to updates to Mac OS X. However, because of the possibility of the latter, Little Snitch cannot be relied on. If the malware is already running on your machine, it's too late for something like Little Snitch to be a reliable way of blocking outbound connections. If you choose to use Little Snitch with full knowledge of this limitation, that's fine.
