Application<br />
The list contains applications excluded from monitoring by the ProActiv component. In<br />
the default installation settings, the list contains signed applications from trusted<br />
vendors. You have the option of adding applications that you consider to be<br />
trustworthy via the configuration or via Realtime Protection notifications. The ProActiv<br />
component identifies applications using the path, the file name and the content. We<br />
recommend checking the content as malware can be added to a program through<br />
changes such as updates. You can determine whether a contents check should be<br />
performed from the Type specified: For the "Contents" type, the applications specified<br />
by path and file name are checked for changes to the file content before they are<br />
excluded from monitoring by the ProActiv component. If the file contents have been<br />
modified, the application is again monitored by the ProActiv component. For the "Path"<br />
type, no contents check is performed before the application is excluded from<br />
monitoring by the Realtime Protection. To change the exclusion type, click on the type<br />
displayed.<br />
Warning<br />
Only use the Path type in exceptional cases. Malcode can be added to an<br />

malware.<br />
Note<br />
Some trusted applications, including for example all application components of<br />
