Thank You for the quick response !

I will try your suggestion ... as I wanted to 'dump' his present A/V
software as well, but left it as/is since he 'just' received the
machine. I am aware of AVG and have used it for years and have had no
problems with it even with the e-mail scanning option enabled.

Whether or nor email scanning (by either an antispam or antivirus program)
depends largely on the connection quality, but McAfee has a really long
history of screwing up OE.
