Post by: Peterx on January 09, 2005, 01:19:42 AM

I am a new user :)
Well, while i am browsing, my firewall (Agnitum Outpost 1.0 free) shows this message:

What have I to do? I have to allow or block this connection attempt?
Please, can you indicate the firewall rules for ashmaisv.exe?

Regards.

ashmaisv.exe is the part of Avast, that takes care of mail scanning. So if you want your mails to be scanned, allow it.
