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

    Even simply checking the version of Java (Java -version in terminal) causes the InterCheck process to spike to 100% and prevents the Terminal command from completing
