After installing Anniversary Edition on 3 windows XP machines yesterday and running full scans (which seem to take significantly longer, about twice the time, than the 2008 version did), on two machines it found "suspicious" .DLL files (TAI of 1) in Windows\System32. On one machine, there were 6. On the second machine, there were 15, which were the same 6 as on the other machine, plus others in Windows\Vbox, associated with Office XP. They were "allowed once" and submitted through Threat Work. Today, there was a definition update, but it still came up with the same files on both machines again. I have read that after submission, once the suspicious files have been determined to be safe, they will be no longer listed after being addressed in the next update. I wonder how long this takes...
It would also appear that AE only scans the C: drive, whereas 2008 scanned all drives. I can find no choices in settings to change this.
I have NOT replaced the 2008 version on my Vista machine, and right now it seems unable to download today's update; the progress bar goes a little way and then stops. Perhaps the servers are swamped right now, so I'll try it again later. It did seem that the XP machines with AE installed on them took quite some time to download the update...
If updates will continue to be available for the 2008 version, I may well uninstall AE on the XP machines and put 2008 back. All in all, it appears that AE may have been released prematurely, and is, for this user, disappointing and annoying!
