The BitDefender Free Edition provides on-demand scanning only, not
on-access scanning.
Therefore, I stay with the free Avast home edition which scans
everything (incl. e-mail under Mozilla) and updates automatically.
Very comfortable.

please how did you configered Mozilla (account entries as username,
password) that it works with Avast (incl. Email scanning)?

I use three POP3 accounts with Mozilla 1.7b Mail, using my usual user
names and passwords.
Mail is configured as to > View > Message body as > Plain text.

Avast is configured as to "Automatically protect all my accounts"
(WinXP: Start > All Programs > Avast! > Mail Protection Wizard).

THX for your kind feedback Roy!

AFAIR the Avast help Avast7.2PRO needs a special/modified User-ID and
Password entry configuration within Mozilla to scan Email already at the
Server? Something like portnumber(?)followed by # and the normal User-ID
given by the provider?

If I understood you right, you changed/modified *nothing* within the
email account settings within Mozilla?

That's right - I changed nothing, and Avast checks my Mozilla e-mails
as Norton AV did it in the past.
