Best Answer

The exceptions list that exists in many anti-virus programs allows you to specify 'exceptions' that the anti-virus program will overlook when scanning for viruses and monitoring suspicious activity. This can be useful if your anti-virus program is blocking a non-virus, stopping it from doing what it is supposed to be doing. For example, if your anti-virus program stopped the Google Chrome installer program from making changes to your computer you would want to create an exception - since the Chrome installer is a perfectly legitimate program that will not harm your computer.
