If you are planning for installing the latest version of CA Etrust,<br />
<br />
Then you dont need to uninstall it from each machine, just get the latest product and use remote install to install in the client machine, this will also remove the old version.<br />

Hi Brum,<br />
<br />
Thanks for your response.<br />
Do you know if the GUID would be different for each PC?<br />
<br />
I'm not planning of updating to the latest CA product either :)

Hi Experts<br />
<br />
I have a bunch of customers using CA eTrust 7.1 from years and years ago. As most of you probably know, this version is now out of date and CA are no long releasing updates for this package.<br />
<br />
How do I create a GPO to remove ALL the CA eTrust products from the domain, so I can roll out their new AV software?<br />
I'd rather not go round each PC and remove the software, as I'll be doing this for well over 100+ PCs over the next few weeks...<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />
Mark

Uninstalling eTrust 7.1 from entire domain - Uninstall from GPO possible?

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
