Immunet Exclusions

[zombunny2]

Just a little note/reminder to Immunet users: In the "Exclusions" section of Immunet's options, there are some pre-defined exclusions for a handful of common AV programs, so that you can install Immunet alongside them and it all works "out of the box" - but these still need doublechecking.

Unfortunately, programs occasionally change, and I can appreciate it's almost-impossible to keep all of these exclusions perfectly up-to-date. Additionally, it would be impossible to add an exclusion for every single AV that Immunet can run alongside (e.g. there are no exclusions for Sophos, but the two can run very well together).

I'd therefore suggest that everyone doublechecks the exclusions for their "main" AV product.

As another example, Immunet's exclusion for Kaspersky refers to a very old version. The correct exclusion should now be "%programdata%\Kaspersky Lab\AVP20.0\Data\". On one friend's install with Kaspersky as the main AV, I was getting reports of repeated crashes until I correctly excluded each AV in the other's settings. To be on the safe side, I excluded "%programdata%\Kaspersky Lab\" and "%programfiles(x86)%\Kaspersky Lab\"

Don't forget to use the true path the environment variables point to for your system (e.g. %programfiles(x86)% on an English system defaults to "C:\Program Files (x86)").
