I tried to uncheck the services and startup programs for it using MSCONFIG to no avail.įinally, I tried to uninstall it and I couldnt even do that! The program was password protected so that no sane human being could uninstall the crap! I understand that the password is there to prevent employees from uninstalling it, but if you cant do any work because your computer is unbearably slow, then it should at least allow the uninstall and notify the administrator. My computer never fell from 100% CPU usage when the program was running.
The worst part about the program is its need to eat up all the processor power on your computer. Actually, Ive tried to kill all the processes related to it and it still continues to run. On top of that, its almost nearly impossible to turn off or kill. I certainly do understand the need for these programs and I use them myself, but Endpoint Protection is a resource hog of enormous proportions. Its a giant behemoth of a program that includes anti-spyware, anti-virus, network threat detection, and all kinds of other super security crap. Uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection without a passwordPosted by Aseem on Wednesday, January 28th 2009 28 Jan If you work in a corporate environment, you and your computer may be the unsuspecting victim of a terrible piece of software from Symantec called Endpoint Protection.
