I have preinstalled AVG AV when setting up my new rig. The technical guy at the guy install this in for me. I find it more handy instead of removing them and installing Norton AV 2002 which I have the license. The problem is this keeps pops in my incoming e-mail message: QUOTE No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus. Version: 7.0.323 / Virus Database: 267.6.6 - Release Date: 6/8/2005 Is there a way to remove this at all or does the paid edition has setting to remove this message at all? Thx in advance.

1. Open "AVG Control Center".
2. Double-click "E-mail Scanner module".
3. Click "Configure".
4. Under "E-mail Scanning", uncheck "Certify mail".

Thanks NickedAsy. It's working.
I'm thinking to get a new AV or to keep my preinstalled AVG. What's the best AV so far? AVG cost around USD$30 pretty light & cheap for personal but unsure if they're reliable (as in V-Database updates)
NortonAV update itself very well but I find it uses too much process.

QUOTE(samuraiKidz @ Jun 3 2005, 07:34 PM) Just get AVG/Avast/Antivir if you are not ready to pay anything for antivirus. jst get AVG,Avast or antivir. These freebies has auto-updates. Kaspersky is not a free anti virus software. 1. AVG www.grisoft.com/ 2. Avast http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html3. Antivir http://www.antivir.de/en/antivirus review: http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenre...ng=1&ttrkey=avg

I have another question (doubts): my Thumb drive is writing slower than ever and I believe it was scanned with my AVG. Is there any setting not to let my AVG scan MS Word / Excel that is written/read on USB thumb drive at all? It annoys having to wait 5-10 seconds.

It annoys having to wait 5-10 seconds. correction here. the lag was a setting error with my firewall. it had been fixed and no lag now. i dun understant why people like to compromise when it comes to security. i think it is better safe than sorry. for me, i would mind if it a resouce sucker or not. i will use kaspersky as it was very powerful to prtotect me. what the point of having ultra canggih rig if so kedekut resource. But i understant u guys out there that hv low end pc or nb. btw hivemy, im not using avg. so cannot help la.
