Do you like wasting half an hour on nothing?
avast is not nothing...
You should use time to learn anything in computer.
You should be patient... I see no other way.
I don't get more than 5000 posts in less than one hour
I see probable problems.
Post them here
1) The error message directed me to the "Manual setting of mail protection..." in the Help, so why would I think for a minute that a wizard was going to do the job?
Please, stop blaming with avast and help files. Try, if you can, to be only in the trouble issue, asking directly questions...
2) I did NOT specify to merge the icons (which I had read about in the help) - it just happened!
Strange... I've never heard this before
3) The context menu on rt-clicking the icon that is there has no option to generate the VRDB.
You should 'merge' the icons to see the option.
On the 'a' icon (no merged) you won't see VRDB option.
