Sophos SAVAdminService and SavService being removed and re-installed

I have a strange problem with a P.C. on the network it is constantly removing and reinstalling SavAdmin and SavService, I get EVEREST reports (of software changes) every 30 minutes like this :

* Service removed: SAVAdminService,Sophos Anti-Virus status reporter,SAVAdminService.exe,9.5.4.9570
* Service removed: SAVService,Sophos Anti-Virus,SavService.exe,9.5.0.9530

* New service installed: SAVAdminService,Sophos Anti-Virus status reporter,SAVAdminService.exe,9.5.4.9570
* New service installed: SAVService,Sophos Anti-Virus,SavService.exe,9.5.0.9530

then another :

* Service removed: SAVAdminService,Sophos Anti-Virus status reporter,SAVAdminService.exe,9.5.4.9570
* Service removed: SAVService,Sophos Anti-Virus,SavService.exe,9.5.0.9530

* New service installed: SAVAdminService,Sophos Anti-Virus status reporter,SAVAdminService.exe,9.5.4.9570
* New service installed: SAVService,Sophos Anti-Virus,SavService.exe,9.5.0.9530

Any ideas what is causing this, Sophos endpoint is configured to update the clients every 30 minutes but no other P.C.s are doing this.

     I am afraid I don't know how to install the version 10 ( I assumed it would be automatic), could you tell me and I'll try that.?
