sophos client firewall ndis packet filter

Hi

Can someone confirm what the above is for exactly?  We have issues with internet speeds and the web filtering co requests we disabled/remove the driver.  I assume its part of the sophos firewall?

Thanks

  • Hello gary smith,

    indeed scfndis.sys is the Sophos Client Firewall NDIS packet filter. Didn't SCF complain?

  • So our web filtering software co recon there is a clash of this driver/application with their software.  I've uninstalled the firewall and web is still slow, so cant be the firewall..

  • I am having this issue too.

    I have uninstalled Sophos completely (or think I have) and now on reboot I have a bunch of drivers coming up that are not 'installed' correctly or working correctly with the suffix of:

    "-Sophos Client Firewall NDIS Packet Filter"

    How do I get rid of these as my computer cannot connect to the local network wirelessly and I believe it is because of them.

  • Hi Gary,

    I believe I've seen this before. Let me guess - you're using Windows 7? If yes - then we use LSP for intercepting traffic. 

    Can you confirm if this issue persists with Windows 8 or 10 devices? I will assume it won't as we use WFP. 

    Once we have more information on the table, I would comment further. 

    Thanks,
