What is dc++ ?

This is a project aimed at producing a file sharing client using the ADC protocol. It also supports connecting to the Direct Connect network.

What are your sensitivity settings for standard shield (Normal is the default), increase that and it will scan more files ?

You could also exclude the dc++ folder *.log files, add it to the exclusions list in, Standard Shield, Customize, Advanced.

Thanks DavidR for replying, but i have now set the logfolder to not be scanned but in the hint window there is written that any folders that are in the exclusions list ,background protection will not follow those settings, i tryed all ways but it's still scanning all my logs

This doesn't tell me what you tried and where, any suggestions I make would be guesswork.

I also asked about standard shield's sensitivity settings ?

What is the file name/s and location/s of the .log file/s causing the problem ?
What have you entered to try to exclude them, e.g. using wild cards C:\*\dcFolder\*.log, what ?
Where did you enter the exclusion string ?
I suspect, Program Settings, exclusions (assuming the syntax of the path is correct), if so this isn't where I said to exclude the files from on-access standard shield scan.

all settings are in "normal mode and the folder i don't wanna to be scanned all over i set like this:


C:\Documents and Settings\GURU\Työpöytä\dc logs

in the exclude list but it still does scan all logs all time on and on

[DavidR]

Is this where you added the path (see image) ?
You will also notice in my exclusions in the image (arrowed) *.log now that I can't recall entering so it looks like it is a default value. Is that not there in your list ?

'dc logs' isn't valid *.log is valid, I'm not sure if the accented characters might also have an effect.

Hi again and sorry for keep on spamming here    its not the standard shield it seems to be ok 100'% it's the last one what cause me the issue what it can be ??


peer to peer networks the last in list that one keep on scanning my dc logs

and also need to say that i get over 1000 logs at 24 hours

Unfortunately there are no exclusions in the P2P Shield, just what p2p applications to monitor.

There are other p2p applications that don't appear to have this issue perhaps trying one of these and see if that helps or you could try peer guardian (I think that is the name) to look after the p2p downloads.

Sorry I can't be more helpful, I don't use p2p applications.

I do not know if this will help but I think it might ...

If the folder you want excluded is called:

C:\Documents and Settings\GURU\Työpöytä\dc logs

Then enter it in the exclusions as:

C:\Documents and Settings\GURU\Työpöytä\dc logs\*
