Latest pre-release of 10.11.4 breaks Sophos AV Home Edition

The problem that existed prior to the release of 9.4.1 is back with the latest version of El Capitan that has just been pre-released 10.11.4 Beta (15E27e). The Sophos icon remains dimmed in the menu bar with the error On-Access Scanning Is Disabled. Could someone in engineering please take a look at this?

  • I am having the same problem with the new beta. I uninstalled AV and installed Sophos Home and still have the same problem.
    Here is the result of the terminal command requested while running Sophos Home:

    MacPro_Eth_en0:~ MacPro$ ls -lR /Library/Extensions/SophosNetworkInterceptor.kext

    and for the second command:

    MacPro_Eth_en0:~ MacPro$ find /Library/Extensions/SophosNetworkInterceptor.kext -type f -exec md5 '{}' \;
    MD5 (/Library/Extensions/SophosNetworkInterceptor.kext/Contents/_CodeSignature/CodeResources) = 6d72b40fd8ecf726a68a0b0392ce2caf

    The Sophos agent I chatted with online about an hour ago was totally unaware of this issue with the new beta.
