I uninstalled the Norton trial version from Vista on my new computer, and
installed AVG Free. I now find that AVG is not scanning my Yahoo mail, and
the AVG control center keeps telling me that the email scanner is not
functioning. It reactivates for a while, but usually goes down again after a
while. How can I configure AVG to scan incoming and outgoing Yahoo mail? I
guess it is now scanning People PC email, even though I never use it.

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no
protection not provided by the regular resident protection.
