    Unless I'm mistaken outside sources are finding solutions faster than sophos corporate. I appreiciate the script but I would normally not use a script like this unless it came form a authorized sophos rep. For Azurus its listing as Frequent Advisor. Does that mean you are a sophos rep or tech?

    Frequent Advisor is someone who posts the forums regularly. Anyone from Sophos will have the title Employee, like myself. The scripts have been posted in a manner that lets the user see what actions are being taken. From there the user of the script can weigh the risk/benefit. We understand that this may not be an option for everyone and are working on additional solutions, workarounds and options. Please keep checking the Advisory KBA for updates.
