    I confirm the following:

    • Disable your on access scanning for your sophos server and workstations via the policy.
    • Run the update manager on the server and check for an update.
    • Verify that the update completed.
    • Once update completed, update computers/servers.
    • Acknowledge the errors on the systems and they should not come back.
    • Re-enable the on access scanning for your sophos server and workstations via the policy.

    I also confirm Nathan's response that the quarantined items are cleaned up automatically. Verified on 200 machines thus far... Geez...
