 On CD2 or which ever, Symantec should provide a WinPE ISO image, with SEP embedded.  Much like the BESR boot CD, just put SEP in there.

This would go a long way to assisting with off-line scans, rather than pulling the HDD, and putting it in another PC, risking infection in rare cases.

Even sell it as a one-time add-on would be handy too!

If you dont provide a WInPE image, how about providing a WinPE validator, that the customer provides to show we already have the media, and then you create a new image with SEP installed.
An Altiris competitor does something like this, where to create their boot CD for imaging, you have to prove you own WinPE, by sticking in that CD first.

It should have Liveupdate capabilities too, so we can update on the fly as needed.
