I'm not sure what we are debating here - AVG, OE, Windows? I use AVG on ALL my computers and it is a great program. I don't have it sitting in my systray either, but I know I'm protected. In fact, I replaced Norton with AVG and won't go back.
By default, AVG will display a "certification" message in your emails, but this can easily be turned off. Perhaps that is the case? Again, maybe I'm confused on the question.

(200 users on a network of servers in two London and one Bristol office). I ordered a new Dell desktop last week that comes with XP Home. He told me to wipe it off before I do anything - he said it is nothing but trouble and he's now banned it from any machine owned by the company either in house or at home - and also has told staff he won't advise on problems on their own machines on which they are doing business work (they allow this for some people that can't justify a dedicated home machine and as a "perk" he supplies technical support to them). He said there are all sorts of problems with it that MS won't acknowledge (his company is a corporate MS licensee due to the number they have and also a corporate customer of Dell, (for all the good that did me!) as they buy exclusively Dell machines and he's told them he doesn't want it. He's told me to get XP Professional. The problem you describe (no AVG message on emails) is just one of those he mentioned. He says as a result you don't know whether you are safe or not. My two penn'orth for what it's worth. Peter MacGregor >My daughter has been using AVG and OE [and, in >case it is relevant, Yahoo messenger].
