    Thanks man for taking the time to respond. I know you must be stupid busy.

    It seems that a lot of my machines are not clearing automatically for some reason.

    I might have to manually ackowledge. I am assuming that as long as I don't receive a second alert I should be good to go.

    I had this same issue. I ended up having to push just the Sophos client back out to my clients.

    I didn't think to check if the Update Service was running or not. For me, pushing the clients out again wasn't a big deal because I didn't have some of the crazy high number of affected clients others are reporting.

    Check the service as @Nathan has mentioned, probably this is your best bet.
