Sasha, you can't add a new thread on 4.5 beta forum anymore. The board is closed.
The buttom is only available on other boards and the user was asking about this one (I suppose).

Yes, you're right Technical, I forgot to tell him that. However, I thought he already noticed Vlk's announcement in here:

I'm running Windows XP Home Service Pack 2 with all updates applied. I loaded the beta because the previous official version would not let me send attachments using MS Outlook Express.

 :( Still cannot send attachments

Did you try the build 4.5.531?

Are you sure your firewall is not blocking the attached files to be sent?

why my avast 4.5.536 takes so much time to scan my computrer ? i noticed that it repeats scaning for my c\windows\microsoft office\office\1025.....  
that is waste of time . any method to improve this long time for scanning

Well, it's not a waste of time. While it scans it checks your computer of viruses.

Folder that you mentioned (microsoft office\office\) has so many subfolders, so you can not possibly see what subfolder is being scanned at that particular moment. I'm asuring you that avast! doesn't scan any folder twice.

If some antivirus scans all your hard drives or partitions in short period of time, let's say about 10 seconds, like we all would like to see (which is by the way impossible), that means that antivirus doesn't check properly.

Relax, and believe me, this is normal avast! behaviour...

I really suggest you send the scanning to background (low priority) and do not worry too much like Sasha said  8)

I don't understand your needs...
Please, can you rephrase?
