Hey<br />
<br />
We have some IBM L520 (approx 2-3 years old) laptops.<br />
<br />
When we install MFEP it takes about x3 more time to startup (before logon screen is shown)<br />
<br />
We use the &quot;Performance&quot; schema from SCCM to configure the clients... <br />
<br />
Any ideas? (why this happens)<br />

Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection killig old machines

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.
