When I seek to download the full index of Newsgroups with OE 6, the following error message is offered:
"502 concurrent connections limit in avast exceeded (processes: msimn.exe [1], cc Pxy Svc.exe [19] Configuration: Account: dberniel_verizon_news]
After reading an earlier post here, I verified that I downloaded ashMaiSv.exe
Suggestions?
ccPxySvc.exe is a Norton component if i remember correctly… It can be a conflict…
Edit avast4.ini, find the section [MailScanner], add (or edit) the line IgnoreProcess.
E.g.:
[MailScanner]
IgnoreProcess=mybad.app,ccPxySvc.exe
or
[MailScanner]
IgnoreProcess=ccPxySvc.exe
I will include this redirector proxy from Norton to the groups of recognized norton processes and with next VPS update it should be recognized and ignored automatically.
This is a typical situation where the ignored process option is really usefull. From the error message you can see, that we have seen the msimn.exe (aka Outlook Express) first and already scanned the message, but next, 19 times the ccPxySvc.exe redirected the outgoing connection to itself and again and again…
Maybe this older post will relate to me. I am receiving error “concurrent connection limit exceeded (pass:10, proceses emproxy.exe (20))” when trying to receive emails via Outlook (2 different servers).I am running Vista. How to correct? McAfee has run out and I don’t want them.
You still have McAfee installed or remnants of it the emproxy.exe is a McAfee element (email proxy at a guess) and get rid of that get rid of the problem. http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/emproxy
Having two resident scanners installed is not recommended as rather than provide twice the protection it can cause conflicts that could leave you more vulnerable.
How did you remove McAfee ?
McAfee has an uninstall tool that you could run to ensure any possible remnants are removed.
