    Dear All,

    In our office, We are using SEP 11 MR 6,   in our desktops. In some of the PC's  since 28th, users have reported that their default home page

    has changed to WWW.google.co.in,  they are  not able to change it.  We  have observed that the the signatures are current. Suspecting malware activity, we have done a full scan, but it has not yielded any results. On checking Microsoft website, the symptoms resemble  that of Trojan.JS/ Start page R.

    We have submitted the samples to mysupport, are yet to get any reply.  Based on some the blogs in this site, i have checked the Proactive threat protection and have raised the sensitivity level to 50 %. But still no  effect.  Please let me know whether any one has come across this problem?

    How far SEP is effective in  identifying and  blocking Trojans. Whether we need to have any ANTI-TROJAN software seperately? 

     

    regards

    Hello,

    This seems to be a duplicate post of:

    However, could you try upgrading the IE 7 to IE version 8 and check if that resolves the issue.
