Exclusions Don't Work

I would like to get the exclusions to work . I have a couple of programs that hang and lock up the computer unless I disable AMON. So far it doesn't seem that it is being addressed. So long as the programs ,such as BOClean that it doesn't seem to bother I am not concerned . But I want to exclude the ones that lock up. Please help and don't go back to the post that said it is fixed.

 

Hi William,

as you see at this thread there are more people running the exclusions OK.

How did you enter the directory path to the AMON's Exclusions tab?:

- with the "Directory" or "File" button, or with any other method (e.g. entered to the "Directory name" field)?

Thanks,

jan

 

For what it's worth, the exclusions are working for me also. The IMON is still killing my system with that Invalid Page Fault thingy, but the AMON exclusions work fine.

I go to AMON ,Set up, Exclusions, add. Then put in what I want to exclude.

 

Its really not working ok.

Paul ,I am certainly not bashing NOD . If I have to disable AMON to run some programs I will do so. But I am not the only one having problems with it. So I do hope that something can be done to correct it. In the interim I will plug along. Other than this one inconvenience I feel that NOD is great.

 

'Although it seems to work for many' there have been a number of postings to suggest that whatever the reason, it is not working correctly for many others.

Although I am, like William, a happy NOD user, Eset should acknowledge that there may be a problem here, which is one they will look into with the continuing development of NOD 2.

 

Hey Paul - don't get me wrong. On my system it works part time but not fully and as I understand thats like that everywhere. I don't have any trouble with trojanhunter or ptools, but interestingly even with boclean excluded - all the files on my system I can see it being checked by amon - which should not be like that.

So please don't jump to conclusions - I actually have said the same in a similar post. !!!

NOD is still a great av and we all want it to become as good as possible and as flawless as possible.

Do the current Setup files include the support for setting exclusions? I ask because when I uninstalled and reinstalled NOD a few weeks ago the update that included support for exclusions still came in the way of a Post-Install update. It may possibly be the case that, for whatever reason, this Post-Install update scheme does not work well for some users.

Sheer speculation, I know, but it might possibly be worth considering.

 

Paul ,I whole heartedly understand the problem. I work as an elec. auto tech and know how hard it can be to diag. a problem. Especially when it doesn't do it all the time. But the people still want their car fixed. I'm willing to give NOD time to fix a problem.

 

Hi All,

If anybody is having a problem with exclusion, pls. post here the exact path to the file/directory that is not working on your machine and as I wrote:

How did you enter the directory path to the AMON's Exclusions tab (under the "Add" button)?:

- with the "Directory" or "File" button, or with any other method (e.g. entered to the "Directory name" field)?

We can try to reproduce it here. I'd like to see not more than 3 examples here, if possible (for the beginning) so that we'll not get overloaded.

Thx.,

jan

 

Hi jan, I hope I have got this correct.

Amon>>Setup>>Exclusion>>Add>>Type in BOClean>>OK

Comes out as; Name type subdir
BOClean\ directory Yes apply OK

 

I have the same thing with Boclean too

have set with directory as the other poster but also put:

C:\Boclean.xvu
C:\Winnt\Boclean.ini
C:\Winnt\System32\Boclean.exe

And the whole directory - anyway I can see ever so often boclean.dll appear. This one actually is only in the Boclean folder

Jan ,if someone can tell me what to type into excludes to get AMON to exclude Spybot S&D I would appreciate it. I have to disable AMON or it will lock up my computer. Thank you.

 

I just excluded the whole directory - it takes a while to load here too, and they set up a patch to help with freezes, but I can't see amon checking it after setting it in the exclude list

Hi tosbsas,

more info from you needed - sent you an IM.

jan

 

I'll second that!

 

Hello Jan,

I have excluded c:\program files\xwall and c:\progra~1\xwall
excluded as directories
excluded permanently
excluded subdirectories

Still, the directory is not excluded!

 

Hi all,

checking the possiblities how to help you - I'll keep you updated.

Thx.,

jan
