In lattice QCD with Wilson fermions, exceptional configurations arise in the
quenched approximation at small quark mass. The origin of these large
previously uncontrolled lattice artifacts is identified. A simple well-defined
procedure (MQA) is presented which removes the artifacts while preserving the
correct continuum limit.Comment: Talk presented by E. Eichten at Lattice 97, Edinburgh(UK), July97. 6
