Why do I now have TWO Sophos icons in my MacBook Pro menu bar?

carolynkay

I got a warning box about a threat, and deleted the threat this morning. This afternoon I noticed there are TWO identical Sophos icons in the menu bar- is this a bad thing?

    No need to restart a computer to get rid of the two shileds. just do the following:

    1. Search for Applescript Editor in Spotlight or launch it if you have that app on the Dock

    2. Write the following script:

    tell Application "SophosUIServer"

    quit

    end tell

    3. Compile and run it repeatedly until you have one shield. NOTE: you need to run it repeatedy because launchd will relaunch SophosUIServer as the app quits, but you can outsmart launchd by running the script several times. At least for me it worked. No need to restart your computer.
