I noticed that I have 0 on the scanned and infected count on the following providers instant messaging, internet mail, network shield, outlook/exchange, P2P shield, and Script blocking. I do have numbers or in other words the following providers are counting Standard Shield and Web Shield. My question is why is it that only Standard Shield and Web Shield seem to be working? I know Script Blocking is working because I get the splash window when I open Internet Explorer but the count is always 0 on the scanned and infected count. Is the answer because the providers with 0 just do not have anything to count? I would think that at least Network Shield would have a count anytime I get on the net, is this true or do I not understand how this works. Please explain to me when should there be 0 and it be ok. It bothers me most about Network Shield and Script Blocking since my thinking is they should have something in the Scanned Count anytime I get on the net. I am using the Professional Avast.
