Sophos Shield is not Black-- Is it working?

I installed Sophos today.  I know it's active, because immediately after installing I did a full scan of all local drives (which took a long time!).  But the Sophos shield on the toolbar is not Black, but Blue (a Black shield is supposed to be evidence that it's doing its background scan).    I have the "preferences" set to be performing continuous background scanning.   How can I determine whether the program is working as it is supposed to,  and if it isn't ,   what must I do to make it work?

Many thanks for any assistance!

  • Are you running on a Mac or on a Windows platform? With the Mac version, the shield is black when on access is active and grey when its not, but on Windows its blue when active and grey when not.....don't ask me why.
