Choosing Exclusion options Many of the files stored on your computer are not vulnerable to virus infection. Having the System Scan module examine these files can take a long time and produce few results. You can reduce the time the System Scan module spends looking at each file you modify by restricting it to examining only susceptible file types. You can also tell the module to ignore entire files or folders that you know cannot become infected. The exclusion list identifies which disks, folders, or individual files you want to exclude from VShield scan sessions. By default, the System Scan module does not scan the Recycle Bin because Windows will not run items stored there. This item will appear in the list when you first open the window. Each entry in the exclusion list displays the path to the item, notes whether the module will also exclude any nested folders within the target, and explains whether the application will exclude the item when it scans files, when it scans your hard disk boot sector, or both. 112 McAfee VirusScan Anti-Virus Software
