About clearing file IDs that are excluded during scans
When you run a Reputation Scan, Norton Internet
Security provides information on the trust-worthiness
of all programs and processes running on your
computer. Reputation Scan helps you detect the files
that are suspicious or vulnerable on your computer
using the reputation-based threat detection. Norton
Internet Security provides reputation information such
as trust level, user prevalence, and stability for each
program and process that is scanned. Norton Internet
Security stores the reputation information of all
scanned files.
All trusted and favorable files are provided with
Trusted and Good trust levels. If any of the scanned
files is suspicious or vulnerable, Norton Internet
Security assigns Bad or Poor trust level.
During each successive scan that you run, Norton
Internet Security excludes the Trusted and Good files
from being scanned. However, if you want Norton
Internet Security to scan all the files in your computer,
you must clear the reputation information of the
excluded files.
