Mac OS X 10.9 "Mavericks" and SAV for Mac

bobcook

Apple released Mac OS X 10.9 "Mavericks" today, free for everyone with Snow Leopard or newer.

We've been testing our product with this release for many months now and had made numerous changes in version 9.0.3 (the version published about a month ago). The significant changes required were to change how we were building, codesigning, and installing our kernel extensions. You will now find two copies of our kext: one in /System/Library/Extensions and another in /Library/Extensions. This follows Apple's recommendation to support people transitioning from 10.8 to 10.9.

The kexts in /System/Library/Extensions are present for compatiblity with versions of Mac OS X prior to 10.9. Starting in "Mavericks" the location is /Library/Extensions. We are codesigning the kexts in /Library/Extensions to conform to Apple's security requirements.

If you have issues, please report them in this thread.

    I have been beta testing Mavericks since June and had no problems.  When it got released I formatted my drives in my laptop and work computer and installed Mavericks and installed all my apps and stuff and got everything setup.

    On both machines browsing around the web has been horrible!   I have 50/25 FIOS at home and even faster at work and couldn't figure out what the problem was.  Chrome and Firefox was even slow and was driving me nuts because it felt like I was using DSL or slower.

    Finally tonight I discovered the issue, its the new Sophos 9.0.3!   Its the Web Protection, as soon as I disabled the Web Protection it cleared up the problem.  I knew right away as the speed was night and day.

    Hardware:

    Home:  Early 2009 Macbook Pro 17" 2.93Ghz Core 2 Duo, 8GB DDR3, 9400M 256MB, 10.9 (13A603)

    Work: Early 2009 Mac Pro, 2.66Ghz Xeon, 12GB, Dual Geforce GT 120 512MB, 10.9 (13A603)


    Has the Web Protection been in past versions of the Free Sophos versions or am I right in thinking it came out with version 9??
