Title: Avast 5 exclusions
Post by: Sandy4 on September 06, 2010, 04:03:09 PM

I have a folder in the exclusions ... list, but Avast 5 (free)  checks them anyway?   Am I missing something?   Thx.

What exactly do you have in the exclusion list, what exclusion list do you mean, and how does avast! check them? (on-demand vs. on-access)

I have a folder   E\games*   and it finds a file 'e:\games\reflexive\snowy treasure hunter.exe" .   I don't know how it checks them ........ I just hear the report.   It is not when I am accessing the file.

Please post a screenshot of the exclusion list window (and maybe also of the detection popup).
