How to exclude a process?

Does anyone know how to exclude a process and all files it touches from real-time scan?

We want to improve the speed of backups and would like to exclude backup exec processes and files they read from being scanned by Sophos realtme scan.

Having used other products such as Trend and KAV, both have support for this however we are unable to find a similar feature in Sophos.

Cheers,

Max

  • Hello GoatCreek,

    the driver is still there, you can see this using fltmc filters from an (elevated) command prompt.

    The key is as per Jak's post, namely HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\SAVOnAccess\ (or ...\SAVOnAccessControl\ for XP).
