I got this also. I went to upgrade to 32.03 and the updater got quarantined. Tried 33.0 and had the same result. This must be a symantec definition problem. I ran a test on a machine that had not been on for 3 months and it installed fine. Of course it updated before the endpoint definitions got updated. Any advise?

We whitelisted the updater.exe (with hashsum value) in Symantec, so it will not get blocked anymore.

I had to make an exception in the SEP server for updater.exe in directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox. Then you can push the site wide install through GPO. Good luck all.
I have some hope for the future that there could be a signed updater.exe for the future. Just a hope.

P.S. don't forget to take out the exception after the install push.

If I create a package with signed .exe, can you all test it out?

Rats,
I just pushed the CE 33.1.1 with the exception in place. I would love to test a signed updater.exe if any new version rolls out. When will CE34.0 roll out?
