Hi Guys

I have just reloaded XP and my sofwtare.

I cannot get AVG Free anti virus and Outlook Express to work together.

Some times when I click on send and recieve I get the following error message in Outlook Express

"The server responded with an error. Account: 'Ours', Server: 'pop.actrix.co.nz', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR AVG POP3 Proxy Server: Cannot connect to the mail server!', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC90"

You will see a reference to AVG in there. I have tried turning the email plug in off in AVG, and not loading AVG up but it still comes up with the same message and will not download my email !

Any thgoughts here please ?

Regards

Digby

Have you tried temporarily closing AVG to see if the problem persists (though obviously don't leave it off for very long!!!) ?

Also this post may help maybe... ?

Thanks guys

Those links were very helpful !

I had already tried closing AVG and the same message came up even after a clean reboot.

I just reset Zone Alarm as suggested and it worked !

But I have kept those links just in case it happens again. And yes I also use Mailwasher.
