Adaptive Defense 360 will block unclassified programs depending on the protection mode selected. However, if users cannot wait for the system to automatically unblock a file once it has been classified, the administrator can use the button Do not block again in the Currently blocked items being classified window.
It is very important that you don't unblock any items unless you are completely sure that they are not harmful. Bear in mind that should an item be finally classified as malware, unblocking it before being categorized will allow it to perform the malicious actions that it was designed for.
Follow the steps below to unblock a currently blocked item that is being analyzed for classification:
In the list of blocked items, find the item that you want to unblock and click the arrow that appears next to the Date column.
Click the Do not block again button.
If you are sure you want to unblock the selected item, respond affirmatively to the confirmation message.
After you unblock a currently blocked item, it will disappear from the Currently blocked list in section Currently blocked items being classified. By doing that, you are allowing it to run under your own responsibility. The item will appear in the Excluded items list and in the history of blocked item, indicating that it has been excluded.
Excluding an item classified as malware from scans is equivalent to unblocking a blocked item that is pending classification, although in the former case you are allowing the execution of a program that Adaptive Defense 360 has already classified as harmful or dangerous.
It is very important that before you exclude a malware or PUP from scans you consider the consequences very seriously.
