Hi Alistair, From memory, and with a few rum and cokes passing down the tubes, after entertaining Tom "Whitestick" Lorimer and his misses for the day, I think this is how you can fix this attachment problem When you launch the AVG control centre, at the top it says something about checking outgoing e mail scanner, with a graphic, in my case, 985 in front of it. Route jaws to pc, and get to this graphic and left mouse it to open the properties of the e mail scanner. It should land you on a plugins tab. tab to a set of radio buttons, about the third one in, and it may be set by default, at, use shared configuration settings, radio button, one of two. Arrow down at this point to personalise configuration, then tab to configure, and hit enter. Tab through this dialogue box and you'll come to options about certifying incoming and outgoing mail. You need to uncheck some boxes in here. One box will stop the attachments going out with your mail, which are simply declaring their safety, and another checkbox determines whether your messages will have that certification displayed in text at the end of your post. As usual, remember and save your changes on exit. Someone else might even come in with an easier way to get to the e mail scanner properties, I just can't get my fuzzy brain to find it for yu.

My outgoing E mail is saying there is a attachment when there certainly isn't! Could some kind soul take the time to guide me through the steps to stop this happening!? I am aware this was discussed earlier but I have since deleted the message and do not have a clue how I stopped it the first time! Thanks in advance!
