Comment:

I recently installed McAfee 6.01 Virus Scan which comes with a Firewall (replacing Zone Alarm). I'm finding it too restricting. It won't let me send emails with attachments or too many recipients. It'll ask me if I want to send it or not and when I say send and go back to Outlook to send the email it'll say either Access Denied or Permission Denied. However, when I look at my Sent Messages it's got sent but it's also still in my Draft Inbox, what's going going and how do I change the settings to fix this? Thanks

I tried McAfee (with the latest definitions) and thought it was ok - then I tried AVG Antvirus and it found things that McAffee didn't with the latest definitions!

Whats the use of antivirus if it misses things?

Use AVG and Zonelabs ZoneAlarm Firewall instead.
