Protection Small Business Edition
Note: You cannot create exceptions for an individual virus and spyware scans.
For example, if you create a file exception, Symantec Endpoint Protection Small
Business Edition applies the exception to all virus and spyware scans (Auto-Protect,
Download Insight, and any administrator-defined or user-defined scan).
Exceptions apply to a particular client type (Windows or Mac). You configure the
exceptions separately. For example, if you configure a file exception, it applies
either to clients that run on Windows computers or clients that run on Mac
computers. Some exceptions are not available for Mac clients.
