[wpkg-users] sophos automate rollout

[Michael Chinn]

The command that we have is slightly different

setup.exe -mng no -updp <website> -ni -s -ouser <encrypted username> 
-opwd <encrypted password>

-ni = non-interactive installation
-s = silent installation

and an undocumented one...

setup.exe -remove -ni -s

will remove sophos from your machine
