No Right-Click Scanning in Free Mac OS version

karmaworld

Just downloaded and installed the free MAC OS version and there does not appear to be right-click scanning capability, am I missing something?

    The Right-Click Scan is available in the Home Edtion. However it only becomes available after the user either reboots or Logs Off then Logs On again.

    Hope That Helps!

    I'm still not getting right-click scanning. There's no option to turn this on or off? Please let me know.

    The version I see when I click on about Sophos Anti-Virus is: Is this the Home Addition? I download it for free and has been working for about a year?

    Sophos Anti-Virus

    Version 7.3.4c

    Threat Detection Engine: 3.24.4

    Threat data: 4.70

    Release Date: October 3, 2011

    Protects against 2958224 threats

    Thank you in advance!

    In the Finder, control/right clicking should bring up a contextual menu with "Scan Now with Sophos Anti-Virus" at the bottom.  This is enabled via
    "Sophos Anti-Virus.plugin" being installed at "/Library/Contextual Menu Items".  There is no option to enable/disable it.
