Taking Items Off the Allow List

You can remove an item from Anti-Spy’s Allow list. Once the item is removed, Anti-Spy will identify it as a potential threat the next time you run a scan.

 

Here’s How

  1. Open the Anti-Spy window. (Remind me how.)

  2. Click the Allow button in the Program Information section.

    In the Program Information section, click the Allow button.

    A new window opens listing all of the items on the Allow list.

  3. Select the items you want to remove from the list, then click the Remove button and confirm the removal.

    Select one or more items, then click the Remove button.

 

What’s Next

If you removed these items from the Allow list because you now consider them a threat, run another scan and remove them so that Anti-Spy can keep your PC safe. You can always add an item back to the Allow list by following the steps in the previous task.
