Hi Sean,

 

One hunch on the lockup could be that the Virus somehow does not allow
you to read/check attributes on the file. Are you able to browse to the
file itself and look up its properties? 

 

I would definitely recommend opening up a TAC case and have them assist
you with this. It should only quarantine machines where the EXE exists.

Hi all -

 

We have a problem. A virus has broken out on our campus and I'm trying
to create a rule that checks for its payload, if found, quarantines the
system and forces an Anti-Virus update and scan. So far I can't even get
it to just quarantine the system. With it in place (checking for the
existence of a file called "c:\MarioForever.exe"), it is quarantining
all systems in the role this is applied to, and then it's just locking -
it's not allowing the computer to update Anti-Virus or anything.

 

Also, I have an either/or rule checking for the existence of Symantec AV
Corporate v10+ or Symantec Endpoint Protection v11+ and on one system
it's failing the checks saying it has a "Symantec unknown product" and
gives the version number of the SEP installation. This seems to be
working for pretty much everything else. We are currently pushing out
SEP to all systems through AD so I'm not sure if it's part of the
installation of something else screwing this up.

 

Any ideas? Please?!?
