Post by: Cornelus on February 23, 2006, 02:14:56 PM

Hallo Computerfriends

Unenstalled Norton System Works with CD ROM

Installed Avast Viruscontroller (home Dutch)

MSN messinger:

If somebody send me a file then MSN  messenger  is looking for:
C:\Program Files\Norton SystemWorks\Norton Antivirus\ccIMScan.exe

What file of Avast can I put here ? ? ?

Thanks for your help

Hello and Welcome :)

As far as I know avast! has a special Instant Messaging Shield - the Shield is protecting the Messaging programs and there is no need to set MSN Messinger, the shield is protecting it automatically ;)
Just ensure that you have turned ON the IM Shield :)
