"Problem IDE is present" from script, but it seems to be fixed?

Hello, we had the seting that seems to have been the most problematic ("delete"), but I think recovery is near.  I have (I believe/hope) followed the steps correctly...

live protection is enabled

exclusions entered

now set to deny rather than delete

waited 10-15 mins

saw that javab-jd.ide was present, generated a list of affected endpoints

repaired update managers (repair option did not work, had to dload the installer), and ran 'update now'

now the part I get unsure about is here;

javab-jd.ide is still there, with a timestamp of 9/19/2012 5:20pm.  I downloaded FixUpdate.vbs and ran it on two affected endpoints, which has the worrisome lines at the beginning;

Problem IDE is present.

IDE that fixes issue is NOT present.

Update did not receive newer IDEs.

BUT, everything fro mthere appears to go smoothly, it stops the SAV, deletes Quarantine.xml, and so on, and the end result is a nice shiny Sophos shield in the systray looking quite normal.

I'm concerned about the 3 lines above though and if there's a problem with Update Managers not...updating?  I don't know, I just don't want to go around running this if it really isn't fixing the problem. 

Thanks in advance.

  • I just ran it with what the kb article suggested;

    cscript //nologo FixUpdate.vbs /fixIssues:true

    The beginning if the script did say "no CID specified, using the detected CID location", and the one it listed there was the right one.  I had already done the SUM repair/install steps in kb 118329 as well, but I did those again just now, then did "Update Now" on each SUM in the Enterprise Console just to make sure, but I still get the same output on that script.  Here's a complete one if that helps;

    H:\>cscript //nologo FixUpdate.vbs /fixIssues:true
    Version 4.4
    Fix issues enabled.
    No CID specified as a command line argument, using the detected CID location: \\WEBSERVER\SophosUpdate\CIDs\S000\SAVSCFXP\
    Problem IDE is present.
    IDE that fixes issue is NOT present.
    Update did not receive newer IDEs.
    Stopping SAV service
    Deleting Quarantine.xml file
    Deleted quarantine file C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Config\Quarantine.xml
    Write IDE that fixes the issue
    SAU files missing from the program files directory
    Writing false positive detections list to .\2012-9-24_13-26-11_001-FalsePosAll.txt
    Writing false positive moved list to .\2012-9-24_13-26-11_002-FalsePosMoved.txt
    Writing false positive moved to restore list to .\2012-9-24_13-26-11_003-ToRestoreMoved.txt
    Writing false positive deleted list to .\2012-9-24_13-26-11_004-FalsePosDeleted.txt
    Writing false positive deleted to restore list to .\2012-9-24_13-26-11_005-ToRestoreDeleted.txt
    No other files need to be moved back
    SAU files still missing after restoring moved files
    SAV files missing from the program files or common application data directories
    RMS files missing from the program files directory
    Restoring missing SAU files from the local cache
    Repairing SAU using 'Sophos AutoUpdate.msi'
    Starting SAV service
    Triggering update of product

    Its just strange, everything looks and acts like it is fixed...I even did a fresh install on a PC from that exact CID location with no problems.  I've done 6 PCs now and they all show up as normal and up-to-date in the Enterprise dashboard, even.  There's just that one niggling thing above about the "problem ide is present".
