NIS using high CPU during gaming

I re-installed NIS, added the programs to the silent mode exclusion list, and tested the game a few times.  So far so good.  No spikes with NIS.  Assuming at this point that it was because I did not add them to the silent mode list but only to the regular scan exclusion list.

 

Thanks to everyone that chimed in the help. 

Seems like Symantec needs to do a better job with NIS 2014 and games. These are extra steps that should not have to be taken.

Hello

 

I have been using this step for several years now, so it is not something new with the 2014 products.
