It seems that you've changed the avast settings without knowing what you were doing...
This is an option disabled by default. You can turn it off going to the Standard Shield provider settings, Advanced tab an unchecking 'Show detailed information on action performed'. You can do this for the other providers too.

Welcome to avast. The most configurable antivirus around

I've turned off the "Show detailed info on performed action" off in the standard shield, the Outlook shield *and* the Internet shield... and I still get the blue banner at the bottom of the screen (above the task bar) for each emailed virus I get (about 100 a day, lately).

Any ideas?  Thanks!

What about Internet Mail provider?
I doub't that you are using MS Outlook (not express) otherwise it would have the desired effect.

Oops, that's what I meant: the Internet Mail provider, I unchecked it in that one too... but the "On Access Scanner" banner at the bottom still comes on when I get new emails in with viruses in them.

I use Outlook XP, running the K9 spam filter as a go-between (127.0.0.1) and I'm running Win2k Pro, if that helps.

Thanks!

Uncheck all other providers for the same setting (Show detailed information on action taken).
Maybe you're seing the message from other provider 

Edited: sorry, the message when you get a virus will be always there. The message disapears only for 'clean' items being scanned

Ah, I see - well at least it's over quickly and I can still work while it happens.

Thanks for the info!

Check 'Settings' in my signature and you'll find how to configure these messages: number of them, colors, transparency, etc.
