Symantec flags competitor software as security threat

if they can get away with it.

Instance: R-Admin (www.famatech.com) $35 two licenses.
Does everything that PC Anywhere USED to do and not any more. Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition 10 and above keep removing it every time it gets new virus definitions and/or reboot server, EVEN AFTER PROPERLY BEING TOLD TO LEAVE IT ALONE. Reasons offered for alleged thread behavior are tenuous at best and missing at worst. Other security software, like Windows Defender, also flags it, but leaves it alone once you "slap its wrist".
Looking for another corporate (=centrally controlled) antivirus. Tired of these Bozos.
Symantec, you have gone too far.
