v8.0.6C constantly writing to LaunchDaemons folder

Duke

One A/V technique is to employ an Applescript that monitors the /Library/LaunchDaemons & /Library/LaunchAgents folders, and posts an alert whenever a program tries to add something there. Since v8.0.6C was released, Sophos A/V for the Mac is constantly writing a new com.sophos.autoupdate.plist, com.sophos.intercheck.plist & com.sophos.notification.plist to the LaunchDaemons folder, triggering an alert.  This appears to be happening as part of the auto-update process.

Please STOP this behavior on the part of Sophos A/V for the Mac.

Thank you!

    Hello RDuke,

    excuse the interjection.

    While I second your objection to the current behaviour I deem your argument somewhat inconsistent. I'd think that the A/V technique ... to employ an Applescript that monitors ... folders is also beyond the scope that most users would want to tackle, or am I wrong? :smileywink:
