View Full Version : On-demand scanning exclusions (not AMON)

There's been a fair amount of discussion about exclusions working/not working in AMON. I haven't tried it in AMON but can't get it to work in NOD32 on-demand scanning. It's not a Real Big Deal, since it proceeds quickly, but I have about 20,000 jpgs that I'd like to exclude. I *think* I have followed the directions correctly. Attached is a screen shot of how I set it up to test. The lack of red check mark means that the dirs should be excluded, right? They aren't. What am I doing wrong, if anything?
Thanks.

Hi,

What I have found is that I use the file/directorys box to scan individual folders/files with out going through the whole C:\. I add the directory or file I want scanned and in the upper box I uncheck the drives I dont want to run. I have sat here and played with it for some time now since reading your post and every time I added a file or folder it scanned it. I am going to look further maybe I will find something for you. I just got my full version today :) and I love it. maybe someone will chime in here.

EDIT: Although most functions are relatively easy to master, sometimes you may need
more detailed information on the NOD32 environment and functions. You may want
to download the MANUAL.PDF file available for your conveniece at www.nod32.com
(download section). The integrated Help system will, however, answer most of your
questions. To receive more advanced help, you may want to visit
the support section of our website which contains a wide selection of FAQs.. Maybe this will help to
FireDancer ;)
