I am a VERY new user to Avast. After initial installation, my Win98 Outlook Express fails with the message:
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop.west.cox.net', Server: '127.0.0.1', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E"[/i][/i]
This looks very similar to the avast E-mail Problems FAQ, which states: "avast! 4 appears to change my POP3 and SMPT settings to 127.0.0.1 and the names of my e-mail accounts are also modified, so I cannot send any messages."
So, I am trying to follow avast's instructions to eliminate this condition. However, modifications require starting the Start Mail Protection Wizard. Could someone tell me where this Wizard is, and how to start it? Thanks very much.
