download.microsoft.com

Coder68
I downloaded an 85 meg file from download.microsoft.com (WSUS) and it seems to have skipped the proxy  pop-up "downloading... scanning for viruses... " window.

Under exceptions for the proxy, Microsoft has a listing that includes microsoft.com - skip AV.
Does the proxy exceptions list also honor child domains as the parent domain?

IE Does the proxy see download.microsoft.com as microsoft.com and skip the AV scan?

It seems this is true, but I want to confirm it.

Thanks,

C68

    Sorry, I "scannned" right over that! - Yes, download.microsoft.com is included in an exception for microsoft.com.
