Anti Virus Daemon does not start from time to time

Hi there!

I have Sophos Anti Virus 8 running for about 2 weeks, and I regognize done strange thing: From time to time the background scan process is not started after booting my Mac. When this happens I get an error message that tells me that ant ivirus has not been started. This happens a few minutes after login.

I can avoid this by waiting for about one minute at the login screen until I really log in, but this is crap. Anyone else with this problem, and maybe someone with a solution?

Regards,

Marcus

  • For what it's worth, I've been seeing the same sort of thing. I'm wondering if it was something that went afoul when updating from 7.x to 8.x.

    I tried checking the version in the About box, and the Sophos UI Server process hung. I'm attempting a deinstall & clean reinstall just to see if that makes any difference.

    I'm running 10.4.11 on an ancient PowerMac G4 Sawtooth, by the way. (And thank you for supporting that old hardware!!!)
