    Stopping Mcshield service with a script???

    Pushing VirusScan 8.5 out via Group Policy

    VirusScan - SVCHOST.EXE Buffer Overflow

    Hi All 1) I would suggest that you apply MS08-067 which is the Microsoft fix for Conficker. 2) With most recent DAT files, run a SCHEDULED On Demand Scan > Reboot > SCHEDULED On Demand Scan The reason for it being scheduled is because Conficker requires elevated priveledges to be removed. A...

    how to downgrade antivirus enterprise 8.7i to 8.5

    Hi erdal01 Firstly, I would have suggested that you investigate the slowness of the PC with VSE 8.7 installed. Why is the PC slow?

    Hi erdal01 Any task created in EPO can only reach the target machine if the target machine has an agent installed on it which is communicating with EPO. Therefore, in this case the tasks you have created are useless and would only be useful if you were upgrading a version e.g. you have agent...

    Hi 8.5 , 8.5.0i and 8.5i are all the same product VirusScan 8.5. I am not sure as to why it is being reported as three different versions but i wouldnt let this confuse you too much, as they are all referring to the same product version. Thanks McAfeeGeek

    Epo4 agent "Failed to get acknowledgement from Server"

    Hi BramB is right to a certain extent. Sometimes you can be running the latest agent but can still be installed to a Network Associates directory. This can be as a result of an agent upgrade rather than a fresh install, where the upgrade overwrites the Network Associates Directory. In the...
