In pulledpork.conf, if you have

state_order=disable,drop,enable
enablesid=/usr/local/etc/snort/enablesid.conf

In enablesid.conf you can have a list of SIDs you would like to keep
enabled if there are some you know are useful/valuable:

1:17114 # WEB-CLIENT Microsoft SilverLight ImageSource RCE attempt
1:23262 # Trojan.Banker
1:23173 # Android Zitmo trojan
