    Good evening all.

    Nathan, you are doing amazing work here. But don't forget to include information for students in your advisory (not sure if you have done that, if yes, i apologize).

    I got the java(...).ide, but the upgrade options on the bottom of the endpoint window were gone. Luckily i was able to remove the programm (total of 2) and reinstall Sophos through the university homepage. Now the upgrade options are back again.

    Good luck those businessman and -women, fighting the "prudent" Sophos.

    Greetings

    Sounds like you experienced the problem with Almon.exe not running. In that case, the Upating section when you open the Sophos Anti-Virus GUI will be missing. You can relaunch Almon.exe from the Program Files\Sophos\Autoupdate directory.
