hi there, after looking at my real time shields it appears that none of my emails have been scanned since early august. all other shields appear to be operating correctly.
i am using avast free 5.1.864 after a clean install.
OS - xp sp3
Email - outlook express 6
ISP - virgin media which does require ssl
if i untick the inbound/outbound ssl boxes in my email settings then avast does scan emails
hope someone can help

hi Charyb & thanks for the info.
i have followed the procedure for the set up but at the moment my mail client is in/out with service so unable to determine if it has been successful.
will run with it for now & if any problems when my client comes back online then i will report back here.
once again thanks for your swift reply
