How do I "whitelist" (make an app a "trusted app") in HMPA?

Question

I have been a 15+ year user of Macecraft's JV16 and recently upgraded to their PowerTools 2017. It has never caused a malware problem. I got a JV16 message that I should modify my anti-malware settings to ignore four of the executable files. also HMPA indicated that one of the four ("jv16pt_PreWorker2.exe") was a trojan. Only one of the 50 multi-virus program online checkers agreed that it was a trojan. I told HMPA to ignore this program, but have subsequently received additional alerts. How do I check if it has been saved in the ignore category and how do I add or remove files from the ignore status?

Hi Tam Man, 
 Please refer " Intercept X: How to report false positives " to have the reported file submitted to Sophos for analysis so that we can verify and make the required changes in the signatures to avoid the same.
