Message says "Sophos Anti-Virus is not running"

I've suddenly started getting a "Sophos Anti-Virus is not running" message after restarting my Mac. Running OS X 10.7.4. When I check Activity Monitor, SophosUIServer and SophosAutoUpdate appear to be running normally. The application itself does not run in the background and never has. Why am I getting this message?

Thanks!

  • Thanks Bob.

    When I try the kextunload I get an error (when Sophos is still running correctly). So I'll wait for it to stop again and I'll let you know.

    (kernel) Kext com.sophos.kext.sav did not stop (return code 0x5).
    (kernel) Kext com.sophos.kext.sav can't unload - module stop returned 0xdc008017.
    Failed to unload com.sophos.kext.sav - (libkern/kext) kext (kmod) start/stop routine failed.
