Third-party security software removal

Spock

Hi!

I'm new this site and to Sophos Products in general.

While preparing our deployment of Sophos products, I found a document about "Third-party security software removal" dated April 2008 for the Sophos Enterprise Console, version 3.1.

In the document, it is said that two versions of the tool exists. I already tried the standard one found in the CRT folder in the CID of our Sophos Enterprise Console Server. I'm now looking for the non-standard one wich is supposed to be " ... available as a standalone tool from the Sophos website." This other version is supposed to " ... support the removal of more third-party security than the standard tool."

Does this version still exist and, if so, where can it be found?

Thanks for your help!

    Hi,

    Yes, the removal tool says that there is nothing to remove but "Site Advisor" from the McAfee Suite is still there even tough the --listproducts option on the command line shows Site Advisor 2.x and 3.x in the list of detectable (and removable) items (Site Advisor Enterprise Plus 3.0.0.476 is the version installed).

    When I initially used the tool, the McAfee agent 4.5.0, the antivirus + antispyware 8.7 were removed but Site Advisor is hanging on!

    Can you confirm that the non-standard tool is not available anymore?

    Thanks!
