I enabled security here at home this past week (WEP) and with AVG from Grisoft the email is blocked. I followed the advice on the AVG web site but still no luck. It is strange in that I have no problem at my office with the same setups (Linksys Wireless G)
Anyone ever run into this.
What makes you think this is AVG doing it? I have no problems with a similar setup. Do some tests: disable / uninstall / reinstall AVG, test at each stage, see if that fixes it. ditto WEP. In fact, do WEP first.

The reason is that when I uninstall AVG the problem goes away. Reinstall of AVG email is once again blocked.
Will disable WEP and see what happens.
"Don Harvey" hath wroth:
- What MUA (mail user agent) are you using? IE6? Thunderbird? Outlook? Have you tried more than one?
- What do you mean by blocked? Incoming? Outgoing? Both? Error messages?
- What do you mean that you "enabled security"? Does that mean that you were running without a virus scanner for an extended period? Did you get a virus which inspired this exercise? If so, have your totally and completely removed the virus?
- Have you checked for spyware? If not, I suggest Microsoft Anti-Spyware. It probably has no effect on the email problem, but should be done anyway.
- Were you recently running a different Anti-Virus program? These run servers on the same ports as AVG. If they were not completely removed and their servers were still running, you will have a problem. Start with:
Please note that this has very little to do with wireless internet.
