I had this problem when I installed Sophos Home on Windows 10 - spotty.exe was detected as containing a virus and deleted! I tried to add file/folder and app exclusions but Sophos insisted on deleting spotty.exe anyway. In a previous life I used Sophos products (in the medical world) and have great respect for them but in the end I uninstalled it so that I could keep using spotty. Anyway I went ahead early this week and contacted Sophos support to report the problem and eventually submitted a sample of spotty.exe to their support team. Today - Friday - I installed Sophos Home again to see if it had been addressed and it appears to have been. So Sophos Home for Windows, or maybe the virus definitions, seems to have been updated and spotty now remains intact. I have no idea if it was the sample I submitted that was effective in sorting the problem out but I'm happy. Hopefully others of you will give it a try. I've still excluded spotty.exe and the InstalledPlugins folder so that may have helped as well Bob 1 x Touch 1 x Radio 1 x Boom 1 x Intel- NUC server/player running LMS 7.91 on Ubuntu 16.04 1 X Odroid-XU4 server/player running LMS 7.91 on Ubuntu 16.04 WaveIO USB into Lavry DA-10 DAC Starfish Pre-amp : Based on NAIM Heavily modified NAIM NAP 250 Power-amp Behringer DEQ2496 Linn Isobarik DMS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bobertuk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=30376 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107615 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
