Mac slows down at Start Up after installation of Sophos Antivirus

drLou

:smileyvery-happy:

Noticed a definite slow down in Start Up of my MAC after installation of Sophos Antivirus.  Is a startup slowdown time to be expected after installation of Sophos antivirus?  Or, should I uninstall then re-install Sophos software.  Any suggestions or recommendations for a possible fix?  Thanks.  drlou

    Christian,

    Thanks for your observations about slow down issue.  I understand that Sophos software scans files and this may be the reason for noticeable slowdown of computer. I installed the Home Edition.  I appreciate the tip about Sophos FreeTalk; I've registered.

    I'll take your response as resolution of issue for the time being.  I'm thinking of Uninstalling Sophos Home Edition as perhaps the  best course of action. Thanks for your response. drLou
