If you didn't run anti-virus why would you bother with anti-malware? And the
exclusion would be per file. So if you didn't run anti-virus I suppose there
would be a way for the virus to save itself over one of your DDK files, but
that would be an awfully specific virus... but then ... you're just trolling
so I don't know why I'm writing this.
