MacHomeAV interferes w/Java

Hi,

Back in June I installed the Sophos home edition anti-virus and then I began to notice java apps took a long time to come up and it came to a real head when I attended a development conference and I could brely get NetBean or Eclipse (both Java IDEs) to function. Originally I though this might be a hardware problem but after doing some googling I found several posts describing my Mac specific java problem exactly and the specific fix was to remove the Sophos home edition. I did that, and the problems all went away.

I assume that what I downloaded in June is an older version than what I can download right now. So, the question is: has that problem been fixed or are there specific options that can prevent that. Otherwise, that slowness is a show stopper.

Thanks,

Rob

I have had speed issues all the way around too - and even though I was told to uncheck something I cannot find the info through a search as to how to do it... I am torn between removal which i did and speed came back and then installing it again - due to various viruses and malware etc that are hitting macs and older macs too, and not running anything and taking that chance....
