Question about excluding files

I have just downloaded an installed v. 2.5. When I scan I get about twelve files that are locked in C/Documents and Settings. I also get all of the skins files in Adaware that are zipped that are locked. I have tried to exclude the Adaware Skin file in Amon, but it does not work. It still scans it and shows in blue. I also wonder about trying to exclude C/Documents and Settings. Would this be dangerous? Most of the files there that are locked are ntuser.dat and ntuser.logs, but also local services and network services.
Any help would be appreciated.

 

Not really, but why can't I exclude the skins file from Adaware? I clicked on Exclusions in Amon-clicked on File -navigated to the Lavasoft folder and drilled down to the skins file and checked it to be excluded from scan. However, it is still scanned in Scan and Clean mode and also in context mode (if I only scan the Lavasoft folder).

 

You are confusing AMON, the file system monitor, and the NOD32 on-demand scanner...

 

Then how do I exclude a file (such as Adaware skin file) from scanning?

 

Maybe you could try running nod32.exe with the /exclude= parameter...

 

No- but I will. Thanks guys. I have temporarily solved the problem by deleting the "skins" file from Adaware. I don't use them anyway.
