I need Help using AVG with Incredimail email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 97/100. momalisa65 (980)   ranked 10 out of 3,371 in computer8 months ago

I had it all working fine together and then I installed the new AVG 8.0
I have several email accounts. It's retrieving and scanning my Hotmail and Yahoo mail just fine, but it will not retrieve my Gmail at all.

Any idea what could be the problem?

Using IE? I would use Firefox.
Also, GMail is completely web-based, meaning the only files you need AVG for are the images in your cache and the attachments you download.

AVG8 is terribly bloated. I loved version 7.5, but 8 is a nightmare. Of course, I only use the free versions.

Well, apparently AVG 7.5 is no longer available. I was told (by them) to upgrade to 8.0 because there was no longer going to be updates for the older version after May 31. That's why I upgraded.

Yes, I use IE. I know nothing about Firefox. IE came with my computer or internet or whatever and that's all I've ever used.

Right now I set up my Gmail to be forwarded to my Yahoo address, until I get this figured out. So at least I am able to get all my email through Incredimail that way for now.

Thanks for your comment!

Check again to make sure that all the settings are still in place and correct,, you can search google for the settings. it is usually to do with ssl and ports. once you get the settings it will become clear. hope this helps

I have the same problem with my Incredimail. It all worked just fine with 7.5, but now I keep getting the "you are not protected" alert saying my email scanner isn't activated, but it doesn't tell you how to activate it! Does anyone know of a place you can go to get the "universal" email scanner AVG refers to? I've even tried re-installing AVG 8.0 ... I make sure the "install universal" is checked, then ... nothing. Help!!

Oh, and I forgot to say .. I DO use Firefox.
