I appreciate all of your helpful information! I have had a problem
with the AVG MailChecker.dll file in Kaspersky recently, which
concerns me, which I've explained below:

In Kaspersky Personal, there's a Mail Checker feature that's a plug-in
that only works with Outlook. I don't have Outlook, but I still had
originally installed the Mail Checker component (although I was unable
to use it, of course). Recently I uninstalled my older build of
Kaspersky Personal 4.0 and chose to install the newest one. I ran into
a problem, which I contacted Kaspersky about, and the only resolution
we were able to come up with was to uninstall the Mail Checker
component. The problem was this: When uninstalling Kaspersky Personal
(and installing the new version), I received an error message when it
got to AVG MailChecker.dll which was this:

The following files did not self-register or unregister

It then listed the path to the AVG MailChecker.dll file -- then it
gave me the message that "the operating system cannot run", which I
thought was rather odd.

Initially, when this error occurred, the program didn't want to
totally uninstall, so I wrote to Kaspersky and asked them how to
manually uninstall Kaspersky Personal. They sent me a utility that did
so. Although the uninstall process went ok then, When I tried to
reinstall, I received the same error message about AVG
MailChecker.dll. Like I mentioned before, the only way around it was
to totally uninstall Kaspersky, use the clean-up utility they sent me,
and then reinstall, omitting the Mail Checker feature (I also omitted
the Control Center, as I always do because I don't like that feature.
It has always seemed to bog things down, and isn't a totally necessary
element, so I do without it).

What I'm wondering is in the "Pro" version of Kaspersky, where do they
classify The Bat plug-in? Is it grouped under the Mail Checker part
(which in Personal is just for Outlook), or is it in another element
of the program? Would either of you happen to know? I'd like to avoid
that particular DLL file, if possible.

Thanks for your help.  :)

Kim
