With better antivirus or Internet Security programs, there should be a functionality (menu choice) in which you can send a quarantined file to the company to further test if a file is a virus or not. If it's not a virus (a so called False Positive), this will be taken in account for the next antivirus update database.
Read in your program instructions how to do that.

With better antivirus or Internet Security programs, you can define Exclusions for the virus scan. This means that a file which you have researched and which is not a virus will - accordingly to your instruction - not be scanned during the live scan or during the scheduled scan of your computer.
Read in your program instructions how you exclude files or folders from the scan, the procedure is different in any antivirus program.


@Veco,
maybe add the above in your TWoS notes!
