All URLs in this list are excluded from Web Protection scans.
Input box
In this box you can input URLs (Internet addresses) to be excluded from Web
Protection scans, e.g. www.domainname.com. You can specify parts of the URL,
using leading or following dots to indicate the domain level: .domainname.com for all
pages and all subdomains of the domain. Indicate websites with any top-level domain
(.com or .net) with a following dot: domainname.. If you indicate a string without a
leading or concluding dot, the string is interpreted as a top-level domain, e.g. net for
all NET domains (www.domain.net).
Note
You can also use the wildcard * for any number of characters when specifying
URLs. You can also use leading or following dots in combination with wildcards
to indicate the domain level:
