    What? See below. The KB article lists specific processes that should be excluded on an Exchange Server. Based on this list I have to assume there is a location for me to include these processes... however I have been unsuccessful in locating it.

    did you try to find the process, in the task manager process list, and then exclude it? Right click on it to open its file location

    Ahh, thanks Cudni.

    That's going to be time consuming, but it gets the job done.

    Unfortunately this just excludes the specific .exe. Quite often a .exe will launch more .exe files, and they continue to get scanned. This caused us serious grief with Sage Line 50, as one .exe launches a new .exe very frequently. We had no choice but to exclude the entire Sage folder.

    Process-exclusion would be a welcome addition.
