Well I managed to jinx things well and truly with my last post!!!
I had a re-occurence of my problem.
HOWEVER, I’m almost 100% I’ve worked out what the problem is and I have a workround to potentially fix the issue.
Ok… the mail.log file reports this kind of error, when I can’t download waiting message from my POP3 mailbox:
“CreateFile(pszHead) error C:\Windows\TEMP_avast_ 32”
I’ve realised that when I use Ccleaner to housekeep on my PC, it deletes the “avast” folder from the windows\temp folder.
I can force the recreation of the “avast” folder by getting Avast to do an update.
I’m not sure what other actions may create this folder too… but this seems to work for me. I guess another test would be to simply create a windows folder with the appropriate name in the appropriate temp folder.
Anyway, assuming I’ve found the problem, I hope this helps someone.
I’ve going to add the “avast” folder to the excluded list in Ccleaner and I’ll see whether I get any more incidences of the "“CreateFile(pszHead) error C:\Windows\TEMP_avast_ 32” error.
