Is there a conflict with WordPerfect?

BruceH

On Monday my university installed Sophos Endpoint Security and Control on all computers. Beginning that day my WordPerfect Office X4 began crashing in the middle of a document. I never had that problem before, and I have not had the time to figure out exactly when and under what conditions it occurs. Is this a coincidence or is there some conflict between the two programs?

My university IT wil not give me any help because it doesn't support WordPerfect; I contacted Sophos support and they would not give me any information because I have to ask my university IT; a search of SophosTalk had no information.

Can anybody tell me if there is indeed a conflict, and what can be done about it? Thank you very much.

    Yeah, Christian, I guess it is a little convoluted. My university actually supports very little software: Windows, MS Office, Sophos, some online learning programs...that's about it. There seems to be no restriction on other software, as long as it is properly licensed. They have links to two companies supplying a wide range of programs at educatoinal pricing.

    I' running Windows XP (word is the university will upgrade everybody to Windows 7 sometime this summer). Until last week Symantec Endpoint Protection was the official antivirus.

    I will try to check the places you suggested. Thanks.
