Anti spam

Hello, I have a problem with Anti-Spam in settings.
I cannot turn it on. Nothing happens when I click on the toggle to turn on.
Any ideas anyone.

Hello Anthony.
We're here to help.
Please restart your PC once and try to turn AVG Anti Spam feature on. If that does not help, I'd request to uninstall and reinstall Anti-Spam feature.
1. Open AVG Internet Security, click Menu and select 'Settings'.
2. Click General -> Troubleshooting -> Add or Remove components.
3. You will see a list of features, untick Anti-Spam from it and click Continue.
4. Once the setup is finished, reboot your PC.
5. To reinstall Anti-Spam, follow the same steps. This time by ticking Anti-Spam feature in components list.

You should be able to turn on this feature. If you need anything else, do not hesitate to let us know.

Hello,
I have tried this fix with no success. I have also removed AVG and re-installed but still cannot get Anti Spam to turn on.
I am running windows 7 and everythink runs fine.
