Well you can also edit the scheduler

1go to control center
2in the list go to scheduler
3tab down to scheduled tasks and press the space bar
4in the list choose test plan and tab down until you reach edit.

Here you can see how avg is scanning your machine and how you want it to behave

good luck

That's correct.  AVG takes over everything when it is updating, the scheduled 
scan is finishing and I have to answer questions to get back to what I am doing.
Do you all have your computer scan daily or weekly?  I do it daily and for some 
reason it does it again twice on Fridays.  I'm not very good at this so sorry 
for the confusion.
Thanks
Barbara

  So Barbara

  If I am understanding you right you don't even want to see a notification 
when avg is updating itself?

  Hum! have to look into this one.

  The "display message only if a problem exists" relates to AVG warning you if 
something is amiss.  For example, if AVG finds a problem with an e-mail, or AVG 
can not update, ...

   

  The instructions I provided turns off the message that the e-mail has been 
checked.

  Hi folks

  I followed Robert's instructions and turned off certify e-mail.  I wonder if 
under the scheduler where it says display components or display components only 
if there is a problem what this means.  If anyone knows if this is where I 
might turn off those messages or does this mean something else?

  Thanks

  Barbara

    I outlined them in my original message, but here they are again.

     

    In AVG, tab to control system and hit the space bar.

    Tab to the list menu and arrow to e-mail scanner.

    Tab to properties and hit enter.

    Tab to configure and hit enter.

    Tab to certify e-mail and uncheck it (I believe it is the third tab).

    Tab to okay

     

    This will not turn off e-mail checking, but it will turn off the message 
that AVG is checking the e-mail.  Thus, you are still protected.

    I don't want to turn off any protection but want to get everything to run 
in the background without interference.

    Do you have the steps to do this?

    Thanks

      Yes, only it does not confirm each e-mail message.  If you wish to turn 
off protection you can do that as well, but that is a separate option.

      So if you turn this feature off do you still get protection? I have the 
paid version of AVG and am disappointed and annoyed at the interference this 
program causes while I read e-mail, work and try to use my computer.  When 
e-mail is being scanned I cannot read my other mail.  If I am working I get all 
the messages that it is updating or scanning and I cannot continue until I 
press okay or close. So maybe there is also a place to check to have it run in 
the background instead of interfering with everything else.  Anyone know?

      Thanks

        Tab to the list menu and arrow to e-mail scanner.

        Tab to properties and activate it.

        Tab to configure and activate it.

        Tab to turn on notification (or something like that) and uncheck it (I 
believe it is the second tab).

        Tab to okay

        Is there any way to shut off the notice

         

        No virus found in this incoming message.
        Checked by AVG Free Edition.
        Version: 7.5.484 / Virus Database: 269.13.3/986 - Release Date: 
9/3/2007 9:31 AM

        Which appears at the end of incoming E-mails?  I'm using the free 
version and thought I had E-mail scanning turned off.  Thank you.
