Symantec Vulenerability Protection add on is disabled in IE 11. What are the ramifications of enabling it?
Protects you against browser specific threats. See here:

Is it compatible with Firefox, Chrome, etc.?
Does it tend to break other things when it is enabled? I am running version 12.1.5 (RU5)
Only IE and FF, not chrome. See here:
Supported Browser versions for Browser Intrusion Prevention for Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1.x
Never seen an issue with this.
Just when might Intrusion Prevention be updated for Firefox compatibility? Given the large user base for Firefox we're seriously dismayed that this has not been resolved. IE isn't in our view an appropriate option given its other security vulnerabilities.
