- | Sophos web protection and web control use a Layered Service Provider (LSP) to intercept network traffic. If web protection or web control is turned on while an incompatible third-party LSP is running, system instability can occur. Therefore, if a third-party LSP that is known to be incompatible is already installed on the computer, the Sophos LSP is not installed.
