Always Allowed Items
There may be times when VIPRE's Active Protection (AP) detects an unknown risk, which you determine
to be safe. To avoid being prompted again, you can add this "unknown" program to the Always Allowed
list. VIPRE will then treat it as a "known" so that it will stop coming up in scan results and in AP
prompts. You can also remove it from this list later.
To always allow a program to run on your computer:
VIPRE offers you three ways to allow a program to always run on your computer without it coming up
in scans or AP:
...from the VIPRE Warning dialog box:
With AP enabled to a Medium or High setting, VIPRE will display a Warning dialog box whenever it
encounters an unknown risk.
1. Configure Active Protection, selecting either High or Medium. This will cause the VIPRE
Warning dialog box to display, prompting you to take action.
Note: If you select Low, AP will not prompt you to take action when detecting an unknown risk.
2. When prompted, click Allow. The allowed item is sent to the Always Allowed list.
