Learn more about Program Exclusions

The Program Exclusions window lists all the programs that are excluded from being notified in performance alerts. When a program that is listed in this window exceeds the threshold limit of CPU, memory, OS resources, or disk I/O resource usage, Norton does not notify you with performance alerts. By default, Norton includes Norton Service Framework, Norton Error Reporting, and Windows Explorer programs in the list.
