    I have AVG free, it came highly recommended and I like it very much.
    However I've seen much advice about disabling the e-mail scanning. I
    finally figured out how to do this in AVG (not easy to find). Also I
    recently let Outlook Express "compact all folders" and when it was done,
    some of my folders were empty! I hadn't disabled the e-mail scanning then.
    I've learned that that could have been the cause of the empty folders.
    Anyhow, my question right now is that although I've disabled the e-mail
    scanning, it still seems to be scanning e-mail attachments. The AVG
    Control Center is NOT checked to allow that. Any suggestions? Thanks.
