A really basic question

putnik

I have just installed Sophos for Mac on my MBP. I have run a full system scan too.

(By the way, some large .dmg files I have for Office 2011 and Google Earth etc took a long time, but it finished eventually without any particular problem)

Now, there is the "shield" in the task bar and the preferences are set for on-access scanning.

Does this mean that I can now "quit" the main application in the dock, in order perhaps to reduce the overhead in the computer memory?

Thanks for any clarification.

    Hello dbrick,

    it is supposed to update itself - although if you have told it not to update of course it won't. The setting should be visible under Preferences->AutoUpdate - is Check for updates ... ticked? What does the log say to your untrained eye which makes you think it is telling you it doesn't update :smileyhappy:?
