Auto removal of previous A/V

Question

Hi, I'm on System Center 2012 and I'm testing Endpoint Protection. 
I like the fact that SCEP is able to remove a previously installed A/V application but we still use the McAfee agent for encryption. The McAfee agent has many other purposes than a simple A/V so I'd like to exclude it from the auto-removal feature. I want
to keep this feature enabled because I still want it to remove Trend OfficeScan. 
Is it possible to keep this feature but exclude a specific component from it?
Thanks,

Answer 1

Thanks for the answer. It's disappointing though as, like I said, the McAfee agent is not an Anti-Malware product. It only places itself in between the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator server and the McAfee product which the anti-virus is a part of but it is
not mandatory so you can have many other McAfee product there not acting as an anti-malware. 
But I understand it is not possible this way so I'll go with the deployment route. 
Regards,
The policy for removing Anti-Malware will only remove some of real-time Anti-Malwares which are as follow:
Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition version 10
Symantec Endpoint Protection version 11
Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition version 12
McAfee VirusScan Enterprise version 8
Trend Micro OfficeScan
Microsoft Forefront Codename Stirling Beta 2
Microsoft Forefront Codename Stirling Beta 3
Microsoft Forefront Client Security v1
Microsoft Security Essentials v1
Microsoft Security Essentials 2010
Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010
Microsoft Security Center Online v1
Based on

From above list if you enable this policy it should remove McAfee VirusScan Enterprise version 8 and it won't remove other McAfee products. I suggest do a simple test by enabling the policy to automatically remove and test it in few PCs and if it did
not removed your product, you could use the default policy , otherwise use the policy to manually remove your Anti-Malware using System Center.
