Sophos Error message

[Sylvain Phaneuf]

Sorry to be so picky...  Is there a way to fix this without having to install the latest stable version?

I am away from the office for a couple of weeks and I don't want to do an installation remotely...

Perhaps a new Sophos.install just for me?   :-)

Or a quick how-to to add the missing symlinks, or whatever a quick fix could be?


Regards,

Sylvain
