Daniel I like Avast but at least they provide controls to shut down the unecessary scanning like outgoing mail. Need to go into the advanced level in each group to do that. But a bigger problem lately is all those apps that keep using up cycles to check for updates. I remember fondly the days when the ZoneAlarm icon never blinked except when I was on-line. -- JohnW-Mpls Hi John, Right you are. However, the problem was that Avast screens outgoing mail by default, unbeknownst to me, on my 4 computers. Yet, 3 worked well, and only 1 had the problem described previously. Why? Chi sa? I had to stumble upon a 5year old post in a Google sewarch to find the solution.

Some people like that little ad that appears at the bottom of their emails telling the recipient what a responsible, upstanding citizen they are; they think it's good PR.

Daniel Hi, I did not know that Avast was scanning my outgoing mail, until I found that old pst via Google. There are so very many things to set up and choose with Windows, that I can't keep up with all of them. The problem was that Avast was scanning my outgoing mail on my 3 computers,and it only was a problem on one of the three. Go figure. Of course, I immediately unchecked the outgoing scan box on all 3 PCs. Thanks again for your help and your comments.
