hi.. i disabled symnatec completly and same Thing happens..
we are just testing latest rapid pattern updates if they solve the Problem.
hi, another affected user at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1138691 confirmed that the issue was caused by a signature update of norton.
we have just installed the latest rapid pattern updates for Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1.6 MP5 . It Dates back to 12.09.2016 Release 31 and the problem is still there.. still looking at it... I updates the esr release on one Workstation to latest Version and the problem has gone.
i think old esr release and actual pattern files triggers the problem.. new esr and actual pattern files doesn´t have the Problem..
just opened a case with symantec.. will update on this shortly..
We did a rollback of the IPS Signatures to 09.09.2016 .. Seems to solve the problem at the Moment...
Response from Symantec: Advise the affected customers to update their IPS content to Seq: 160912013 (September 12th, 2016 rev. 13 to resolve the issue)
seems to work now...
