In the case you know about some of the found programs that they are not a sort of spyware
but a legitimate software and do not want Outpost Firewall Pro to treat them as spyware
(for example, you want to see ads displayed by some adware program), you can add such
programs to Ignore list. Outpost Firewall Pro will ignore the programs on the list
displaying no alerts on detecting their activity. Also these programs will not be displayed in
the list of detected spyware. To add a program to ignore list, right-click its name and select
Add to Ignore List. The record for this program will be removed from the detected
spyware list. You can later remove program from the Ignore list using the Edit button on
the General tab of plug-in properties.
Important: In fact, cookie is not a spyware but can be used to steal private information
from your computer. Spyware programs installed on the computer can write the
information into the cookie files, and on visiting the corresponding site, the information
can be sent to the third party person.
The last step of the wizard displays the scanning report where you can see the number of
detected, removed, and quarantined spyware and other scanning details.
