NOD32 Directory Exlcusion

[djjsin]

I have a directory on my computer, which has 3 folders that i have mounted my drives to for easy of access to my different drives through the network. The problem i'm facing is whenever I do a system scan using NOD32, it hits that folder it basically loops and starts over the whole scan (the directory structure is c:\c drive\*.* then it goes to c:\c drive\c drive\*.*, etc) and it goes on continuously. How can I exclude this directory from the system scan?

Also, what happens if you close the NOD32 Control Center? Does the antivirus still work and detect virus's?
