| Symantec Endpoint Protection Is anybody running SEP on their system? By any chance do you have it running on a Lenovo? I'm still using my X41 and we recently installed SEP 11 on our network. It's not playing nicely with my X41, but it seems to be doing okay with the other clients on the network. I thought I'd ask... thanks -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal |

| Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection Hi Howard - Symantec products I keep off my systems entirely because they're pretty invasive. I don't recommend running programs from companies that want to control everything, and cannot even write a proper uninstall routine for their own programs. 8-) -- Chris H.

| Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection Hi Chris, I can appreciate that. The product seems like a good idea and appears to be working on my server and desktops. There is something that the X41 doesn't like about symantec. symantec antivirus corp ed didn't install easily on the X41 either. Once we got it there, it worked like a dream. I never had any problems with it. It's not the applications that I have trouble with, it's their concept of customer service that drives me to the edge. I'd rather call microsoft any day. Thanks, I appreciate your comments. -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal "Chris H" <VistaMobilePC********.com> wrote in message news:B78F34B3-CD20-40F9-83B0-252774D5C274@microsoft.com... > Hi Howard - Symantec products I keep off my systems entirely because > they're pretty invasive.

| Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection Don't know about that, but I started using the product in the old dos commander days as well.

| Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection There are still a few there who care, I just got off the phone with an engineer who worked with me and treated me with respect. She also was apologized profusely for the other parts of the experience that she did not have any control over or part of. I think that if Peter is lurking in this NG he should find this person in the Oregon office and give a good pat on the back for a job well done. The CS guy and his supervisor who took mercy on me and allowed me to pushed my support agreement into the system started the turn-around process for the day's experience. Until that point, my opinion of symantec was as low as it had ever been. I'm sure that this experience does not characterize their typical customer support event. -- howard "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" - Juvenal "Beverly Howard [Ms-MVP/MobileDev]" <BevNoSpamBevHoward.com> wrote in message news:OGvsFmBaIHA.5164@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > >> I started using the product in the old dos commander days as well << > > Peter Norton helped a lot of us get through difficult times in those early > days... now, he's rich, and probably still a good guy but don't think he, > or his philosophy has much to do with Symantec any more ;-( > > Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] > |
