Applications
The list contains applications excluded from monitoring by the ProActiv component. In
the default installation settings, the list contains signed applications from trusted
producers. You have the option of adding applications that you consider to be
trustworthy via the configuration or via Guard notifications. The ProActiv component
identifies applications using the path, the file name and the content. We recommend
checking the content as malcode can be added to a program through changes such as
updates. You can determine whether a contents check should be performed from the
type specified: For the "
Contents"
type, the applications specified by path and file name
are checked for changes to the file content before they are excluded from monitoring by
the ProActiv component. If the file contents have been modified, the application is again
monitored by the ProActiv component. For the "
Path"
type, no contents check is
performed before the application is excluded from monitoring by the Guard. To change
the exclusion type, click on the type displayed.
Warning
Only use the
Path
type in exceptional cases. Malcode can be added to an application
through an update. The originally harmless application is now malware.
Note
Some trusted applications, including for example all application components of your
AntiVir program, are by default excluded from monitoring by the ProActiv component
even though they are not included in the list.
Input box
In this box you enter the application to be excluded from monitoring by the ProActiv
component. To identify the application, the full path, file name and file extension must
be specified. The path must either show the drive on which the application is located or
start with an environment variable.
The button opens a window in which you can select the application to be excluded.
Add
With the "
Add
" button you can transfer the application specified in the input box to the
list of applications to be excluded.
Delete
The "
Delete
" button lets you remove a highlighted application from the list of
applications to be excluded.
