intercheck files more than 90 days old

I update sophos when I tuen on my computer.  The last two times I've done this the log warned me that some files were more than 90 days old. Is this a problem?

Thanks for your help.

  • I looked at my IDE list and have the same report...

    IDE directory is: /Library/Sophos Anti-Virus/IDE
    
    File crack-aq.ide is older than 90 days
    File zbot-fhz.ide is older than 90 days
    File zbot-fia.ide is older than 90 days
    File bred-ahs.ide is older than 90 days
    ...

    So I just Googled 'sophos 90 days ide' and found this...

    It mentions 8.0.16 and below is affected, however if I run sweep --version I'm on 9.0.1

    diz$ sweep --version
