Title: Program in use exclusion HOW?
Post by: Draymon on October 12, 2010, 12:36:26 PM

While playing World of Warcraft and plant vs Zombie i have noticed a weird occurrence. When i am about to go into a high cpu usage bit of gaming ie. instance running(wow) or a large wave of zombies(PvZ) the computer seem to lock up :o and the avast looks to be scanning the program in use for a minute or so then returns me to regular gameplay :P

is there anyway to excluded programs from the shields so i can get uninterrupted gameplay?

Windows Xp
Avast 5.0.667

Yes, if you are comfortable enough with the program, you would want the exclusion list in the FileSystem Shield's expert settings.
