Sophos Enterprise Console/Software Restrictions

Hi all,

Having a problem with getting our Sophos endpoints up and running.

If a client is protected with the endpoint software and a user logs in that has software restriction GPO's applied to it, something blocks access to Internet browsing.

I've narrowed it down to a single GPO that contains the software restrictions, and if they are disabled (or changed to unrestricted) then the user can browse the Internet.

The message that appears is that the browser cannot connect to the proxy server.

Is there a clash somewhere? or a setting that needs amending?

I've tried fully disabling all policies but there still isn't any connection.

Strangely, as an Admin I can browse the Internet if I run Chrome with my credentials, but I'm assuming it's because there are no active software restrictions imposed on my account, and the proxy settings are taken from the registry.

Sophos Enterprise Console 5.1
Windows Domain - Standard users no admin rights

Thanks in advance 
Tom

    If i search Sophos KB, the error is there, but I can't find a trace of the actual problem. Any ideas?

    Thanks
