Something that needs to be updated continually like AV software is not a good candidate for inclusion in a sysprep image.Īnyway if I get any information on what's causing this problem I'll update people here. could I suggest that you don't install the SAV client on your image, but instead include it as part of the installation process to manually install from the SAV server? If you want to automate that you could do it with AD Group Policy, or something like LanDesk. In my case it's just a minor niggle (everything else works fine), but if you're creating a sysprep image then it's a show-stopper really. perhaps a faster PC shuts down quicker as well, and something in SAV doesn't like that? I recently upgraded to a savagely fast quad-core PC. I've never seen this particular problem before, even though I've been using SAV for almost 10 years. I'm now on on XP, mine is Corporate Edition on my home PC because I VPN into work. I've also gone back to recent previous editions (10.0.1, ) with the same effect. remove, reboot, reinstall, several times, all to no avail. so either there are only two of us, or else it doesn't bother other people. The first release of Symantec Endpoint Protection was published in September 2007 and was called version 11.0.I found this forum via Google and yours was the one single hit.


Endpoint Protection is the result of a merger of several security software products, including Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition 10.0, Client Security, Network Access Control, and Sygate Enterprise Edition. For example, it can block data transfers to unauthorized device types, such as USB flash drives or Bluetooth devices.Įndpoint Protection also included new features. Īt the time, Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition was widely criticized as having become bloated and unwieldy. Endpoint Protection 11.0 was intended to address these criticisms. The disk footprint of Symantec Corporate Edition 10.0 was almost 100 MB, whereas Endpoint Protection's was projected to be 21 MB. In 2009, Symantec introduced a managed service, whereby Symantec staff deploy and manage Symantec Endpoint Protection installations remotely. 'An existing subscription to Symantec AntiVirus or Symantec Client Security entitles you to a Symantec Endpoint Protection 11. A Small Business Edition with a faster installation process was released in 2010. In February 2011, Symantec announced version 12.0 of Endpoint Protection.
