A E AVG Mail Shield has been interfering with Thunderbird retrieving my mail
AVG 18.5.3059 is not playing nice with Thunderbird. 2 problems. I keep getting "Unable to connect to your IMAP server. Exceeded maximum amount of connections" error message. Also, when I click "reply", it won't send the email. Says something about in incorrect subject. Don't remember that error message. I disabled the Email shield in AVG and T Bird worked fine again. So I found a help file for AVG and, I followed the instructions. I exported the "MailShield.der" from AVG and imported it into Thunderbird but, first I had to delete the certificate that was already there of that same name and it imported the new file fine and, Thunderbird worked for a few days. But today, the same 2 problems are happening again. I figured I'd try the export and import of "MailShield.der" again but, it wouldn't install saying it was already installed (as it did before) but, unlike the first time I imported it into Thunderbird, it was NOT in the list so I couldn't delete it. Now I have to disable the email shield in order to get my mail again. Oh yeah, I also have SSL unchecked.
Thanks for your help

Petr Domácí Website Shield - exception - syntax for ports range
We need to make exception for port range in Website Shield.
Supplier our SW recommended to exclude ports from IP address.
For example:
IP=193.154.90.64 port from 8091 to 8191.
Is some syntax for it?
Only example what i've found is dns://*.example.net* but it not usefull for me.

Best Answer chosen by Petr DomácíPetr DomácíAs stated in the previous message a URL address is the only thing that can be added to the web shield. Below are examples of what can be added to that shield.
URLs Exclusion Examples:
For example, to add "https://business.avast.com/", please add like this...
https://business.avast.com/*
*.avast.com/*
www.avast.com/*

Desiree Goodchild AVG Tune UP
Hello there, I seem to have lost my original question, so this might appear twice.
18 days ago, I received a renewal notice for AVG Tune UP. Last week I followed instructions, but as there was no reactivate box I clicked activate and next. Yesterday I received yet another notice asking whether I needed help to install Tune Up. This time I had to type in my name, plus the actual AVG Tune Up is different. They know my name and Tune Up is already installed. Is this a scam?
Please can you help me?

Hans Linde AVG Internet Security reducing the Internet speed with about 50%!
This is NOT a question! It is real information!
I have had AVG IS 2018 for severel months and I have had some discussions with AVG under april-may about my Internet download speed with that program. I pay for 50 Mb/s down and 10 Mb/s up, but when I have tested the Internet download speed with "TPTEST" and "Speedtest" I mostly have about 25 Mb/s down.
AVG's support have looked into my computer and tested it, but they say that this program is OK, so the problem must be in my copmputer.
I did'nt accept that at all, so now I have uninstalled AVG IS 2018 and installed F-secure Safe 17.4.
Now is my Internet download speed OK!!!
I have tested it severel times and it is stable!
Normal test results now: 56.4 Mb/s down and 10.3 Mb/s up!
I recommend all people who use this AVG IS 2018 to test your internet speed with "TPTEST" and "Speedtest" and take a real look to your download speed!
I think you will be surprised!
What is AVG going to do to solve this problem with the internet download speed for AVG IS 2018????
