The attempt to delete the infected file "X" failed. The user does not have the rights...

Hi all,

We are getting the following message more and more often:

The attempt to delete the infected file "X" failed. The user does not have the rights to perform the action on the infected file

When I 'click -through' to the Sophos site it states that the Sophos Anti-Virus service should be run using an Administrator account. When I checked, the service uses NT AUTHORITY\LocalService. Is this the correct account or do we have an installation problem?

Thanks,

John

Our Sophos on 1400+ machines has never been run as administrator, its always run as LocalSystem, I don't think running it as an administrator is the answer ?
With system privs, it should be able to do what it needs to do.
