About Signature Exclusions
Norton AntiVirus lets you select specific known
security risks and exclude them from Norton AntiVirus
scans. Exclude a risk from Norton AntiVirus scans only
if you have a specific need. For example, if another
program relies on a security risk program to function,
you might decide to keep the program on your
computer. You might also decide not to be notified
about the program in future scans.

When you exclude a known security risk from Norton
AntiVirus scans, the protection level of your computer
reduces. You should exclude items only if you are
confident that they are not infected.
To exclude a security risk from scans, you need to add
the specific security risk to the Signature Exclusions
window. The Signature Exclusions window contains
the list of all security risks that can be excluded from
Norton AntiVirus scans. For each security risk, you can
view the risk details and the effect of the risk on your
computer.
To add security risks to the Signature Exclusions
window, go to the Norton AntiVirus main window, and
then click Settings > Computer > AntiVirus and
SONAR Exclusions > Signatures to Exclude from All
Detections > Configure.
Adding items to the Signature Exclusions
