Subject: [access-uk] AVG's e-mail protection isn't working


hi everyone,
I don't really understand this.  I've been receiving a spate of those
e-mails with suspicious attachments in them that I thought AVG was
supposed to remove once they got into the inbox.

I've had a look at AVG.  the the e-mail scanner is activated and
functional according to AVG as all of the other systems on aVG.

I've had a closer look at the e-mail protection thing. in the control
centre, e-mail scanner tab,  all boxes are ticked (checking incoming,
outgoing mail and certifying incoming and outgoing mail). in the
advanced settings incoming mail tab, all boxes checked eccept "with
attachments only".  outgoing mail tab; the same check boxes checked as
in incoming mail. Notification tab; the check box to "display warning
window" is check but, I've not set a sound to play when a virus is
detected.  In certification tab; it has written "incoming/outgoing is
certified virus free!.

it all seems to be right as it should be.  However, just a reminder
that, suspicious attachements are still coming in and I don't think AVG
is detecting them.  When i send out mail, there is no certification
notice at the bottom of the e-mail like there is everyone else who uses
AVG.

Yes, My AVG copy is always up to date.  I use Zone Alarm free edition
too.

So, does any know anything I've left off? not done to rectify this?  is,
what I got just a bad copy and need to download a fresh one?

thanks everyone,

Justin
