What mail client do you use?
Mozilla 1.6
Have you completed the Mail Protection Wizard? (Start menu → avast antivirus group)
It doesn’t work on mozilla 1.6 so I configureed it manually as per the instructions ( ie these are the changes etc etc.)
Mail scanner is running .
I watch it - little icon flashes and i see the file names and it puts its footer on all outgoing messages and detects viruses on them … I watch it recieve messages the box comes up and if you watch the scanner it says the right file names but … doesn’t actually seem to do anything apart from that … no footer no virus detection - it has the file name as the last scanned but every virus gets through – they are ALL caught by the standard shield if attempted to be launched or saved … Extremely impressed with the standard scanner … it caught 7 mydooms that were went / arrived 2.00am GMT on day 1 … ( pop scanner missed them though ) and its stopping the general swens ( apart from the one i mentioned above) brilliantly … the standard scanner cant be faulted !!
