Zonealarm Pro & Avast! Pro
« on: February 04, 2006, 02:30:05 AM »
Hi,

How do I set up my avast to work with zonealarm?
It says that I need to disable the 'Privacy' feature in zonealarm, which I have.
Is that all I've got to disable?
What about email scanning or doesn't Avast! have one?

Thanks,

Henry

Hi henryjl, yes I believe that is all you need to disable.You can Left click avast"a" in sys tray and look at web shield resident and see if it is scanning. Yes avast! Has email scanning.If you use outlook express it is scanned by internet mail scanner. :)

Do I right right click on the 'A' icon then click on 'on-access protection control' and then avast on scanner comes up  then I click on 'details' and then it says:
Instant Messaging - Scanned count 0
Internet Mail - Scanned count 0
Network Shield - Scanned count 0
Outlook/Exchange - Scanned count 2
P2P shield - Scanned count 0
Script blocking - Scanned count 0
Standard shield - scanned count 1326
Web Shield - Scanned count 137

Now is that right?
Oh and all the 'Sensitivity' is on normal, should I make it higher?

Thanks,

Henry

Outlook/Exchange - Scanned count 2
Does that mean how much mail it has scanned?
If it is I think it's wrong ^_^ cause I've got 200+

Yep, henryjl, now you got it. From now on, the email scan count should continue to rise.    :)

Welcome to the forums!

Be sure to come back often, learn more, and maybe help others.    :)
