Is there an absolute constant C>0C > 0 such that every integer nn with σ(n)>Cn\sigma(n) > Cn is the distinct sum of proper divisors of nn?

This has been solved in the affirmative by Larsen - in fact, for any ϵ>0\epsilon>0 there exists LL such that if nn has only prime divisors >L>L and σ(n)>(2+ϵ)n\sigma(n)>(2+\epsilon)n then nn is the distinct sum of proper divisors of nn.
