here's how....
The AVG Free Edition 9.0 software protects your computer on multiple levels. In case you need to disable AVG Free, please consider which part of the protection you need to switch off. The AVG parts and their purpose are:
- AVG Resident Shield
The Resident Shield is the main component protecting you from viruses. It scans accessed files and if a virus is found, the access to the file is blocked. This applies to executing infected programs, as well as to opening of infected documents or any other files.
Disabling of the Resident Shield is sometimes recommended before installation of a new software or drivers, since it can prevent conflicts that would otherwise occur during their installation. This however applies only to limited number of specific programs and drivers, and there is no general reason why AVG Resident Shield should interfere with an installation of any application.
To disable the Resident Shield, please:- Open AVG User Interface.
- Double-click on the Resident Shield.
- Un-tick the option Resident Shield active.
- Save the changes.
- AVG E-mail Scanner
The AVG E-mail Scanner may affect your sending/receiving of e-mails, since it is designed to scan the messages and needs to access them in some way. The way of accessing the messages depends on your e-mail client, but only the Personal E-mail Scanner plugin can interfere with the communication between your computer and the e-mail server.
To disable the Personal E-mail Scanner (if it is installed), please:- Ppen AVG User Interface.
- In menu Tools select Advanced settings.
- Go to E-mail Scanner - Servers - POP3, and click on the POP3 server (usually AutoPOP3:10110).
- Un-tick the option Activate this server and use it for receiving e-mails.
- Repeat the same for SMTP server.
