Symantec Endpoint Protection Problem Hello,
The other day I booted up my computer. Everything was normal until Symantec Endpoint Protection started to install without me running any install applications. I did have it already installed because my colleges provides it for free. Anyways, I am wondering why this happened and continues to happen every time I turn on my computer. Also, is there is a way to stop it. I am running the Home Premium version of Windows 7. | My System Specs |

Check in your startup programs whether the updater is sitting there. If yes, disable it. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

I guess then you have to check in the programs controls. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista, Windows7, Mint Mate, Zorin, Windows 8 CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to i7 Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse Trackball mice Hard Drives 5x HDD, 7x SSD, 12x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

Well, this has never done it before. I even have tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, but I continues. Also I haven't changed any settings. Do you have any other ideas? | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom OS Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1 CPU AMD FX-4170 Motherboard ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.

i am not familiar with this particular program. But knowing Symantec, I am sure there is a setting somewhere that does this.
What you can do is go on the Symantec chat line and ask them. They are always very helpful.
