Using uninstall file < remove_v9.sh > opens up xCode, with no directions I can follow. Solutions?

ZZZ

I wish to uninstall Sophos Anti-Virus for OSX, following the directions I am double clicking on the file:

remove_v9.sh

This open up xCode and there are no further instructions for me to follow, all the Anti-Virus files are still in their original place. I must be doing something wrong?

Cheers for the help.

    Leaving so soon?

    You're double-clickng the file in Finder and the file extension (.sh) is associated with Xcode and not the Terminal.  You could run from Finder but you'd need to first be logged in as root so the steps below are easier...

    Open a terminal (type 'Termin..'' in Spotlight) and then run this...

    cd /Library/Sophos\ Anti-Virus/
sudo ./remove_v9.sh

     ...you'll be prompted for your password (that you use to log on to the computer with).
