SAVCLI32 - Do not follow links

David_H_Lipman

RE:  Sophos Anti-Virus for Win32 Command-Line Interface (SAV32CLI)

Two questions

1.  At present I see, v4.98 for February 2014 [1/29/14].  Is there a newer Command Line Scanner ?

2.  How can you tell the client to NOT follow links.  It seems that the scanner hits the User Profile links and recusively follows the links instad of just scanning the LNK file. It does so scanning the same files over and over again and its is extremely time consuming and frustrating.  What is the switch parameter to tell SAV32CLI.EXE to NOT follow links ?

    I am surprised it hasn't been mentioned before and it is kind of illogical to scan an area over and over again because the utility follows links instead of just scanning them.  It seems more logical to have a command line switch to enable or disable that capability.  I don't even see how following links has added value.  Especially in light of Vista and above in the User Profiles.

    But, if that is the case...  Oh well.

    Thanx !
