Hello...
I have used AVAST for a couple of years, problem free, with my Outlook Express and Qwest as my ISP. Tonight I updated to AVAST! 5, free version. Immediately I was told that:
"avast! has detected a secure connection from your mail program (process msimn.exe) to the POP server 65.55.32.247 (live.com)
This type of connection cannot be checked for viruses. Please disable SSL/TLS in your mail client so that the Mail Scanner can scan your mail. The Mail Scanner will provide the SSL/TSL security itself."
Here is a direct quote from Qwest's setup manual for Outlook Express:
"Incoming/Outgoing server info: If you are already familiar with how to configure Outlook Express 6, use
the following information. If you need more help, continue reading.
Incoming Server:
o pop3.live.com
o port 995, SSL enabled
Outgoing Server:
o smtp.live.com
o port 25, SSL enabled, requires authentication"
Like I said, everything worked just fine with older Avast! versions. Is there a fix for this? I have enjoyed Avast! to this point and would hate to lose them.
