does not intentionally cause harm but can be dangerous if misused,
especially if set up incorrectly. Examples of such programs are chat
programs (IRC), or file transfer programs. If you want to allow the use of

test environment and allow their use when you are checking and
configuring rules for the applications in Spyware and Riskware Reported
by hosts table.
