I am using Avast 4 Home Addition Anti Virus Programme Version 4.1.319
First, we need to get you updated to version 4.1.335 which corrected some bugs. You can manually update the program using the A ball. Right click....Updating....Program.
When you run the wizard, these settings should be entered:
SMTP Mail Server: smtp.tiscali.co.uk
POP3 Mail Server: pop.tiscali.co.uk
Set the Wizard to “Automatically protect ALL my accounts”
My SMPT Port is confirmed at 25 and POP3 port at 110
Very good.
I can also confirm that the server settings are 127.0.0.1
Avast should have automatically changed your server to 127.0.0.1
I do not have any firewall installed but have Skybot S&D 1.2
I use Spybot also. It will not affect Avast or email.
I might add that all 3 of my email accounts were lost after installing Avast and to date I have only retrieved my main one through change of password. the other two remain unusable.
Please explain this to me in a bit more detail. Use the IM feature of the forum for this question to conserve space.
I ran the MPW as you suggested – In the Service Settings I tried “127.0.0.1 in the Default POP3 Server Box,
No, in the POP3 box you should enter the address as provided by Tiscali: I think you had pop.tiscali.co.uk??
....but will try to modify file “. Ini” within Advast
No, don't do that right now. What you can do if send me a copy via IM of your .ini file settings. I like to keep such things confidential.
Thanks again
