Sophos autoupdate error

[Lush, Richard]

I did look into this, but the webpage seems to check that you have
filled in your details before it will let you download.  I haven't found
a way to bypass this yet.  If I do find a way round it I'll post the
process.

Anybody found a way of automating the update of the sophos engine ?

In otherwords so as you don't have to do it yourself every time on every
machine.

This is happening because you have an old sophos engine.  Download the
latest and it will work.  Remember the sophos engine only exist for
three months.

Hope this helps
