Hello,
We're having a huge issue systemwide with Symantec Endpoint, version 11.0.4202 (release MR4 MP2), where the XFER folder and Quarantine folder in the (/All Users/Application Data/Symantec/Symantec Endpoint Protection/) directory keep looping, essentially multiplying itself endlessly. What appears to happen is Symantec will detect a "Trojan Horse" or "Downloader" in the XFER folder and move it to quarantine. For some reason it will immediately redetect the same thing in the XFER folder, and repeat this process endlessly.
This occurs ONLY after a full scan is run. We have a scheduled full scan to run every Thursday morning at 2:00 A.M. when nobody is logged on to any computer. When we arrive in the morning Symantec's reporting over 60,000 new viruses quarantined.
This is not just one computer but many. Not all of them do it either. It is becoming a major concern and I thought that this was fixed in the latest release, but evidently something is being buggy.
I have read through this forum and have noticed others with the same problem, but the given solution is generally just to clear it out, uninstall, etc. I would like to see at least some acknowledgement or help on this issue if possible, as it will be very irritating to have to go throughout each of our buildings and hunt down these machines manually just to clear out a detection error.
If any other information is needed, please let me know. I am more than willing to take screenshots or gather data to get this resolved.
Here is a screenshot noting this:
