Re: download progress indicator
Is anyone using The Bat! with the free version of AVG antivirus? This version does not come bundled with a TB plugin. The most recent link I could find in the TBUDL archives for a AVG 6 plugin was for a file named avgbat10us.exe. I'm just a bit wary of it though, because the timestamp on the avgbat.bav file in my AVG directory is 16/12/2002, which seems quite old. Its file version as shown in TB is 6.0.686. Does anybody use TB with the free version of AVG and have a more recent plugin than this? Or even just if it's ok to keep using this old plugin? AVG is up to date and seems to work fine, I just wonder whether the plugin is dated. Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi, when downloading emails, progress bar in Connection center does not show real progress while downloading a big email.
