Progress bar appears to stop when scanning

New Thread started by Moderator

Hi People :manembarrassed:

Using "Scan Local Drives" in the Sophos anti virus for Mac, the little black dot is doing its thing nicely going round and round in the S shield, But, the blue progress bar has stopped at 782,961 items remaining (to scan) on a file named as EWDWW.cab  Am wondering if there is something wrong with that file in that it seems to be refusing to be scanned, or what?! [This is the first time I've had a problem scanning using this programme.]

    Those .cab files are large archives that will be unpacked (decompressed) and scanned. It can take a very long time if its a big archive.
