If Symantec feel it's ok to block legitimate applications then what's to stop them doing it again and again? There are a few hundred users in my IT department alone, and I don't want them coming to me every week to have another tool unblocked. That's annoying enough on it's own but I feel that that there's a much larger principal at stake here. Now I can download and use the scanner but whenever a full system scan runs it still gets quarantined, although it does allow me to undo it. It took a few days and just when I'd got the exclusion fixed they recategorized it from hacktool to other and I had to do it again. Configuring the exception wasn't working so I had to work with a Symantec support technician to fix it.
