    there is a known conflict, change the liveupdate schedule not to run at the same time.

    Mail Security for Exchange: There are no known problems with the install however Mail Security should be configured to not run liveupdate. This will cause it to use the same definitions as the Endpoint product eliminating definition corruption caused by both updating at the same time.
