1) With AVG 8.5 the menu entry 'Check for viruses' does not work
correct.
The messages are:
The anti-virus has reported an error, the object cannot be checked
for viruses
The anti-virus has reported an error, the object cannot be checked
for viruses
The anti-virus has reported an error, the object cannot be checked
for viruses
The anti-virus has reported an error, the object cannot be checked
for viruses
The anti-virus has reported an error, the object cannot be checked
for viruses
Checking finished. Found 5 infected messages out of 5 checked ones.
But there are no infected messages.
With TheBat 4.1.11 the plugin worked fine.
2) The AVG 8.5 plugin for TheBat does not work at all.
The logfile of the account says:

You can see that TheBat reports 'no antivirus plugins installed',
which is not correct.
With TheBat 4.1.11 the plugin worked fine.
