Panda AV is having a bad day
-
If the solution to a problem is "don't reboot", that's a pretty sad solution.

Hence why the panda is sad.

I got bit by this - I'm almost more sad I didn't get to bring this to group
We got hit with this at 7:45 this morning. Of course at first we weren't sure what was wrong (but looking at the streams of emails coming in from out AV some of them claiming files in the AV folder were bad made me think the AV was suddenly broken).
I started a mad dash at first thinking I should tell everyone to shut down their computers, but quickly rethought about that and instead just told everyone 80+ people to just walk away - stop using your computers (in retrospect I should have told them to get off the network too). I was running under the assumption that a bad DAT has been pushed (felt awesome to be right) and I grabbed a stack of unused laptops and started booting them up, disconnecting from the internet as soon as possible (disable wireless) and then proceeded to uninstall the AV. This worked! I was in business with machines that didn't seem to have the issue. We handed these machines around to get key areas access to our main applications. This surprisingly took a long time, finally around 11:30 we received notice via email (I called support and left a voicemail since they didn't answer - and still now 12 hours later still no call back) that they were aware of the problem, had pulled the bad DAT and were researching solutions to the affected machines.around 12:30 I was able to start checking all of the computers around the office and found that we only had 15 machines that actually had downloaded the update and need to be fixed. As of now I'm still waiting on the aforementioned fix.
Damn it's been one hell of a day!

i'm sure webroot is good. i'm liking vipre w/ gfi or maxfocus or whatever it's called this month.
sorry dash
-
@Hubtech did you know they are replacing Vipre with Bit Defender?
-
Yeah, GFI and Vipre split ways. Very odd.

-
GFI is now so weird they have made so many changes to what they are using, who they partner with. It's so hard to stay on top of things with them.

It makes them seem unstable to me..
