I installed link scanner, than uninstalled and reinstalled AVG without it,
because when surfing the net, it was too slow, and used a lot of
resources.

: No. You should never use e-mail scanning with OE regardless of the
: program. And with AVG, it is advisable to install it in Custom Mode
and
: opt out of e-mail scanning at that point. You may end up with a
: conflict with the Windows Security Center otherwise.

: Are you using Version 8? I never played with it and it might differ
some

: Did you reinstall in custom node as recommended, or just uncheck
e-mail
: scanning? If you didn't, I would reinstall. It only takes a few
minutes.
