They sure do, in the preprocessors.rules (if you are using that)

Otherwise, you can suppress them.

I am getting excessive number of stram5: TCP small segment threshold exceeded, and http_inspect: long header alerts. 
I do not want to disable these Preprocessors (stream5 is anyways needed for certain other preprocessors). So what 
should I do? I guess preprocessors dont really have a 'rule' which I can just comment so that it wont show up, right?

Thanks.
