Exclude from AMON with wildcards (2.x)

Hi,

I want to exclude a folder within my profile folder under Windows XP from realtime scanning with AMON. The folder contains the offline cache database of my Email client.

It looks like this:

C:\Documents and Settings\myusername\Local Settings\Settings\Company\

Normally i would just add that path. But now I want to create a .XML config file that is valid for any PC and any user. So I would need to mask the username bit.

I have tried various strings like:

*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\
*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\*
C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\
C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\*
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Settings\Company\
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Settings\Company\*

to no avail. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

Wildcards in exclusions are partially supported in v3 (EAV/ESS). As for variables, they are neither supported in v2 nor v3.

 

Thanks for you reply. So in other words it is impossible in v2 and

C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\*

would work in v3?

 

bump?

 

No, wildcards are not supported in v2

 

And

C:\Documents and Settings\*\Local Settings\Settings\Company\*

works in v3?

 

Yeah it does.

 

Thanks!
