Hi KingRolo

The Antivirus Engine version on XP machines may get the updates (may be for a month or two) but the UI version will not get any updates henceforth.

Hello MihaKralj,

as you can see, the XP has definitely not upgraded to the latest version (10.7.1), this spells the impending end of support for this platform. That it updated successfully suggests that it still gets new definition updates (I'd be surprised if Central would silently cut out these). Please see How to determine whether you're receiving the latest data protection updates.
Sophos is usually quite generous with "unannounced" grace periods but rather sooner than later they have to pull the plug and will do so.

I see Haridoss has already replied - please note the may.
