    I had Symantec Endpoint Protection running under Vista Ultimate.  Upgrading to Win7 i get a message that SEP's "Confidence Online Utility Driver" has been disabled because it may create stability problems.  Symantec says they're working on it. In the meantime? Are end users are still protected?  No answer from Symantec.  Is there a Microsoft soluition?

    Prior to make OS upgrade had you uninstalled SEP? If performed a fresh install does it work?
