Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac V7.3.1 is compatible with Mac OS X Lion

spiderman

Apple just launched their latest operating system OS X 10.7 (Lion) today and we wanted to let you know that your version of Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac already supports it.


In anticipation of the Lion launch, we released an update at the end of June that automatically upgraded SAV for Mac to v7.3.1. This version is compatible with OS X Lion so whenever you upgrade to Lion, you’’’’ll be fully protected.


If you are a home user and don’’’’t have Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac already installed, or have not been upgraded to v7.3.1, you can download the latest version for free here: http://www.sophos.com/freemacav

    I'm not trying to jump on the Sophos/Lion hate bandwagon or anything, but I've noticed that Intercheck is using almost twice as much virtual memory as before.  Is this normal?

    Before upgrading, iStat would display the MEM gage as appearing almost empty.  Now, even after a reboot with nothing new (other than the OS) installed, my gage has instantly shot up to approximately half, and my computer runs a bit more sluggish.

    I'll try doing a reinstall of SAV, maybe that'll do the trick?

    Disable it for a while untill it is fixed. I have confirmed that the same problem will happen with every back-up that time machine performs. You could also disable time machine to manual back-up just after you disable Sophos. Then you can enable sophos again after back-up.

    I for myself have disabled Sophos. The problem already appeared under 10.4 as it seems, some years ago. Sophos should do their homework a little bit better. You are now warned that such a fault can really damage your computer!
