Avira Premium Security Suite
76
When this option is enabled, the execution of the Windows Autostart function is blocked
on all connected drives, including USB sticks, CD and DVD drives and network drives.
With the Windows Autostart function, files on data media or network drives are read
immediately on loading or connection, and files can therefore be started and copied
automatically. This functionality carries with it a high security risk, however, as malware
and unwanted programs can be installed with the automatic start. The Autostart
function is especially critical for USB sticks as data on a stick can be changed at any time.
Exclude CDs and DVDs
When this option is enabled, the Autostart function is permitted on CD and DVD drives.
Warning
Only disable the Autostart function for CD and DVD drives if you are sure you are only
using trusted data media.
13.2.1.3. Exceptions
With these options you can configure exception objects for the Guard (on-access scan).
The relevant objects are then not included in the on-access scan. The Guard can ignore
file accesses to these objects during the on-access scan via the list of processes to be
omitted. This is useful, for example, with databases or backup solutions.
Please note the following when specifying processes and file objects to be omitted: The
list is processed from top to bottom. The longer the list is, the more processor time is
required for processing the list for each access. Therefore, keep the list as short as
possible.
Processes to be omitted by the Guard
All file accesses of processes in this list are excluded from monitoring by Guard.
Input box
In this field, enter the name of the process that is to be ignored by the real-time scan. No
process is entered as the default setting.
Note
You can enter up to 128 processes.
Note
When entering the process, Unicode symbols are accepted. You can therefore enter
process or directory names containing special symbols.
Note
You have the option of excluding processes from monitoring by the Guard without full
path details.
application.exe
This however only applies to processes where the executable files are located on hard
disk drives.
Do not specify any exceptions for processes where the executable files are located on
dynamic drives. Dynamic drives are used for removable disks, such as CDs, DVDs or USB
sticks.
Note
Drive information must be entered as follows: [Drive letter]:\
The colon symbol (:) is only used to specify drives.
