I can't find it via your link, but we did find that article via another 
resource.

We are now discussing the issues with our security team.

Although the Sophos version we'll likely be installing has addressed several of 
the problems identified by the researcher, some of us are concerned about how 
long it took Sophos to develop solutions.

Thanks for remembering Robert!

Questions have been raised about the efficacy of the Sophos product?
