  • 1.  Autorun block not working

    Posted Jan 21, 2011 02:32 PM

    Hi All,

    I never had a problem before to block, but at RU6 MP2 I'm having problem to block Autorun.

    I've placed the policy to the groups but still running autorun and I can see that the policy has been changed and the machines are winxp32bit.

    Do SEP block autorun and USB ports on 64 bit machines?

    I've tested this policy https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/downloads/how-do-i-block-access-autoruninf-using-symantec-endpoint-protection-sep-application-and-de

    Thanks!!!

    Application and Device Control does not work on 64-bit systems.

    Do all 32-bit systems have NTP installed?

    Why not disable Autorun through Windows?

    Yes all the machines has NTP istalled. On the headoffice where i got AD I've done throught windows, but i got small brachs with a poor link and does not have AD there, and I need to block with the SEP.

    I'll have a look at the best practices to seen if there is anything wrong!
