Excluding an application from HTTP Scanning

Hi all! If I have an online game that I want to exclude from real-time scanning (but allow the game itself to be scanned during a weekly scheduled scan), would the correct setup be to just include the URLs that the app accesses in the Excluded Addresses section of the Web Access Protection setup?

If the game uses files stored locally, do I add the .exe to the Antivirus / Antispyware setup Exclusions list, or do I have to add the entire directory (i.e. the .exe and all files the .exe accesses)?

I don't know if I'll do the latter unless I see a performance hit, but curious as to how the configuration should go!

 

Yes, that's right.

Also, if the game stores files locally, just exclude the game's local directory.
