Disable Sophos Endpoint Security and Control 9 startup balloon tip

pinkeyflower

Is there a way to disable the startup balloon tip by Sophos Endpoint Security and Control? All it says is something like "Sophos protection enabled". I'm using Windows XP SP3 and Sophos Endpoint Security and Control 9.

    HI,

    That balloon tip only appears on the standalone installations.

    I found changing the following key

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\[Wow6432Node]\Sophos\AutoUpdate\

    IsManaged

    to a 1.

    This way, when Almon.exe is launched (typically at logon) you don't get the balloon.

    Cheers,

    Jak
