A few days ago I started getting repeated messages from Zone Alarm, saying that avast e-Mail Scanner Service is trying to access the Internet.
Identification: Not available in ZoneAlarm.
Application: ashMaiSv.exe
Destination IP: 209.86.93.206:POP3
More Information: This program has previously asked for Internet access.
An accompanying message:
CHANGED PROGRAM
Application: ashServ.exe
Destination IP: 54.233.167.99:DNS
This program has changed since the last time it ran!
Another message:
REPEAT PROGRAM
avast! antivirus service is trying to access the trusted Zone.
Application: AshServ.exe
Destination IP: 207.69.188.185:DNS
More Information: This program has previously asked for Internet access.
I am running Avast Home Edition 4.8.1201, Windows XP, SP2
Is the problem Avast, Zone Alarm, or something else?
