Have tried to glide the slider from normal to custom in the Provider Config.

Changing the slider from custom to normal will 'reset' the configuration...

...why does avast reset my markers after a reboot?

It should not... Can you send to yourself an email both only text and HTML format?
Aren't the notes there?

Must i do something whit the format of the notes? And buy the way...i think downloading whit the scanning takes longer than whitout...is it beacause the scanner scans it on the server before downloading?

I think this issue has nothing concerning to notes format  :-\

Of course, when scanning the email messages the system will take longer than without scanning. The reason is because after the download is finish and the system will save the file in the disk, avast will scan the file.

avast does not scan the un-downloaded messages that are in the server yet...  ;)

jonn.jo, what operating system are you using? Also, what version of avast do you have, exactly?

I don't know if this helps at all but I've been having same problem and I've also been having trouble with my Zone Alarm Pro not saving settings.  Well today I shut down Zone Alarm and set it not to start up at sytem start just to see what happened and strangely enough my Avast settings didn't reset after the reboot this time.

What you can do is the following: open the file <avast>\data\avast4.ini in Notepad, and change the line that reads

Database=ODBC

to

Database=XML

Then restart the machine, and try making the changes again.

Thanks

Here's something that might help some of you with this. I found that I, too, was having a problem with keeping the custom setting for the Internet Mail Provider (IMP) using the slider alone. It would change back to High just by clicking from IMP to any other Provider and back to IMP.

I had to click on the Customizer button. Checking on some of the items under the various tabs would not make the slider stay on Custom when clicking on other Providers. It always returned to High.

To get the slider to stay on Custom, I had to click on customize button on the Heuristics tab. When the new box opened, I left the default settings (only one item not checked) as they were and clicked OK. Now, the Custom setting stays no matter what else might be done.    ;D  

I hope this might help some of you who may not be doing enough to keep the slider from returning to High after you have set it on Custom.    :D  

By the way, I am using W98SE, avast4 Home (of course), ZoneAlarm, various anti-malware programs, and a couple of cleaner programs for ridding my computer of junk files saved by IE.    :)
