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

    Hello Christian,

    I shall read the article with care.  I should add that since installing Sophos Antivirus software, the Mac-computer is not only slower at startup but much slower when trying to connect with other internet resources.  I can live with a slower StartUp time, however, the delay in connecting with internet resources is not trivial.  I have not clocked the difference in times, perhaps I should? Anyway, thanks again for your thoughtful responses; I will re-think the uninstall option.  drLou
