I've been banging my head on this for a while, and I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
A while ago I downloaded a small freeware program called FlexCrypt Folder (LifeHacker review: http://lifehacker.com/395460/flexcrypt-passwords-documents-in-a-standalone-package) Basically, it takes your folder or whatever, encrypts it, and folds it into an executable that includes the decryption algorithm. You can then send the executable to someone (who has the password) and they just double-click and it decrypts the folder. Simple and useful.
I encrypted a few things and then forgot about it. But then, when I went to look for those things, I realized that Norton AV had identified those files as trojan horse infected and removed them. Every time I try to bring them back from the quarantine or whatever, NAV just gets all upset and deletes them. I tried to add a *.crypt exception to NAV, so that I could just change the extension and hopefully NAV would ignore it. I don't even remember if that worked.
The real problem is that when I try to encrypt something with the program, NAV just blocks it outright.
Best I can tell, the program wants to access different NNNN.dat files (such as ...ckexe2_hbhm.dat or ...CKexe2_cyac.dat) and NAV identifies that as a generic Trojan Horse and blocks it.
I don't want to exclude all Trojan Horses from the scanning (and I can't find that option anyway). Is there a way to force NAV to allow one particular application or one particular file or something to execute?
Please help. I've searched and searched.
Thanks.
