= All URLs with the top-level domain 'net' are excluded from WebGuard scans:

www.name1.net, www.name2.net, etc.

Warning

Enter the URLs you want to exclude from the WebGuard scan as precisely as possible.

Avoid specifying an entire top-level domain or parts of a second-level domain because

there is a risk that Internet pages that distribute malware and undesirable programs will

be excluded from the WebGuard scan through global specifications under exclusions.

You are recommended to specify at least the complete second-level domain and the top-
level domain: domainname.com

12.6.1.4. Heuristics

This configuration section contains the settings for the heuristic of the scan engine.
AntiVir products contain very powerful heuristics that can proactively uncover unknown

malware, i.e. before a special virus signature to combat the damaging element has been

created and before a virus guard update has been sent. Virus detection involves an

extensive analysis and investigation of the affected codes for functions typical of

malware. If the code being scanned exhibits these characteristic features, it is reported as

being suspicious. This does not necessarily mean that the code is in fact malware. False

positives do sometimes occur. The decision on how to handle affected code is to be made

by the user, e.g. based on his or her knowledge of whether the source of the code is

trustworthy or not.

Macrovirus heuristics

Your AntiVir product contains a highly powerful macrovirus heuristic. If this option is

enabled, all macros in the relevant document are deleted in the event of a repair,

alternatively suspect documents are only reported, i.e. you receive an alert. This option is

enabled as the default setting and is recommended.

Advanced Heuristic Analysis and Detection (AHeAD)

enable AHeAD

Your AntiVir program contains a very powerful heuristic in the form of AntiVir AHeAD

technology, which can also detect unknown (new) malware. If this option is enabled, you

can define how "aggressive" this heuristic should be. This option is enabled as the default

setting.

Low detection level

If this option is enabled, slightly less unknown malware is detected, the risk of false

alerts is low in this case.

Medium detection level

This option is enabled as the default setting if you have selected the use of this heuristic.

High detection level

If this option is enabled, significantly more unknown malware is detected, but there are

also likely to be false positives.
