AVAST updates and Vista outbound firewall

Hi

I installed AVAST on my other computer which has Vista's outbound firewall turned on. On AVAST's faq it says I have to allow 'avast.setup' outbound access. But, the problem is that Vista outbound rules only allows you to specify 'exe' files to allow outbound. So I'm stuck. Does anyone know of a workaround ?

Thanks
