Version 9.5.2 Released Today

bobcook

Hello everyone,

We just released Sophos Anti-Virus Home Edition version 9.5.2 to all users today. This version has been in "preview" status for a couple of months and we've had great feedback. Thanks to the people who installed the preview, we got more than seven thousand installs since its availability in early June.

You should see approximately a 30mb download followed by the update. As mentioned a long time ago, we do not support macOS 10.6 or 10.7 any longer, and the installation will fail. We do fully support macOS 10.8 and up, and this version should correct the updating issue seen on later versions of the Sierra 10.12 public beta builds.

Thanks for your support and let us know about issues you encounter.

    Hi Bob, trying to give someone a link to download the Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition, but only finding the Home (cloud) version. Is it still available anywhere?

    Also, is Sophos still actively devoting resources to removing adware on-access? Wondering if I can recommend it for that purpose?

    Sorry for the dupe. For some reason, getting access denied when I try to delete the earlier one.

    Hello,

    I do not believe the AV for Mac HE link is available anymore, I have looked myself and can't find it. Unfortunately I do not have any insight into where our resources are currently being deployed but removing adware, malware and PUA is our business, so we definitely are working in this area.

    Regards,

    Bob

    I gave someone this link, which was for the 9.5 preview/beta. It's what I used some time ago for the 9.5 HE, will that still bring in the 9.5 Mac HE (to be automatically updated to the 9.5.2)? Is it still working?

    The one I gave above doesn't parse properly. The link given at Bob Cook's post (6/10/16) for the 9.5 Preview/Beta

    community.sophos.com/.../77784

    brings me to the EULA, where if I hit the Accept button, I'm brought to the Software Export Compliance form (what's that all about anyway? I've never seen that from any other software download.) Not ready to re-submit that, but I'm guessing that, if one follows that all the way through, it will bring in the original 9.5 beta. That, in turn, I'm supposing will be automatically updated to the current 9.5.2.
