eScan Firewall blocks application which are already in Permit list of Application Rule

eScan Firewall blocks applications which are already in Permit list of Application Rule.

 
In below condition eScan Firewall will give you a alert/popup of application blocked:
-If the MD5 of that file is changed/different but the version number of the file remains same.
 
In below condition it will **not give** alert/popup of application blocked:
-The MD5 of that file may have changed/different but the version number of that file is greater then the version which was previously installed.
 
 To check what was the last version number of the file which got changed, check the below log files respectively:
Check UPDLL.LOG file from .\program files\escan\log folder,  if the file/s got changed with the download of automatic updates.
Check ESUPDATE.LOG file from .\program files\escan\log folder,  if the file/s got changed after installing eScan hotfix.

Stupid answer. A program that is on the permit list keeps getting blocked and the answer above does not tell me how to unblock it.
