    I did a few client upgrade test today and users are noticing the a pop-up stating "The Symantec Intrusion Prevention add-on from Symantec Corporation is ready for use.", with the options of Enable or Don't Enable will be presented at the bottom of the IE window.  how do I turn off this feature so the users have no interaction?

    This needs to be done via GPO as it is a Windows problem.

    Hi Brian - Will this happen if the user is upgraded to IE 11 before upgrading SEP?

    I believe it will unless you GPO it away.

    See here, GPO is probably not necessary in future:

    Good find. This should work. Now only to get support for newer versions of FF.
