Could this be because I use the 'free' version JSL of AVG? IAW The AV plug-in settings are in IAW Options|Preferences|Protection|Anti-Virus. OK, I'm starting to get a headache here. Apparently I've misunderstood something, somewhere in this thread. I *DO* have and always have had the AVG plugin in Options|Preferences|Protection|Anti-Virus. However, one of Marek's posts indicated the AVG plugin should be in Options|Preferences|Plugins which it isn't in my configuration. Marek's post also indicated that one should use the ADD button in Options|Preferences|Plugins to locate and install the plugin. If one attempts this you find that the ADD button is looking for a .TBP file which doesn't exist in my Grisoft\AVG folder as Marek states as a location for the plugin. I think the confusion comes about because of the two locations in Options. To wit: Options|Preferences|Protection|Anti-Virus Options|Preferences|Plugins As stated above I *DO* have the plugin showing in the former but not the latter.
