Can you block a specific AV Vendor within the Antivirus APM object?

If I wanted to block say Norton and allow all other AV Vendors through is it possible to do this within the Antivirus object within APM or would you have to do a Windows Registry check and then block...

I would have thought so.

Inside the client side Auth module there is a av check.

That breaks down the AV vendors.

You can either then call out the one you are looking for and build the rest of your code off of the failback branch or take the advanced code and tweak the equals to not equals.

I'd need to check if the same module has a not equals built in, but it's normal looking for any sort of av or the corporate defined one. Not normally explicitly looking for one to discount.
