Feature Suggestion: SES Web Protection allow list

WhatHappened

It would be nice to see, in Web Protection settings (Configure anti-virus and HIPS > Web Protection), instead of turning it simply off and on an area where we can allow certain programs through Web Protection. 

Example: Viewing a Security Camera System's web interface. Often they will require plug-ins for browsers. Recently occured and was found that Sophos' Web Protection > Download Scanner needed to be switched off to allow the Camera System's web interface to work. Would have been happy to leave it set to on but allow the one plug-in to bypass.

    QC, did not get any alerts. Just the DVR's web interface stating it failed to connect. Turning off download scanning allowed us to connect. 

    And, yes, with download scanning enabled browsing other web sites works perfectly. This is the only time I've ever encountered Sophos and another application (plug-in) not working together. We did add the plug-in's install directory and it's files to the excluded list but that didn't do the trick. Disabling download scanning did the trick. 

    I will check into Authorizing the DVR's web interface address and see if that works.
