Anti-Virus Exclusions and You!

So there is some amount of confusion on what exclusions are needed for various Microsoft products.  This blog is not necessarily meant to be a definitive list, but is a compilation, a list, of KB articles that point to the various products and their individual guidance on AV exclusions.

A special shout-out to Aaron Ellison for compiling this list internally!  Go team PFE!

(social wiki has a dynamic list that may be more updated here:
