On opening outlook express to read my Emails, I suddenly got a pop up on the bottom menu bar it was an AVG scanner message stating that it was scanning one of the messages. This stayed active for ages and I could not get rid of it, in the end I had to turn off my computer and thern turn it back on again to get rid of it. It has not returned since. Does anyone know why this happened? It has never happened before.

The message will appear if your AV is scanning a large attachment. If you have checked the box "Hang up after sending and receiving" (in Tools/Options on the Connection tab) OE may well disconnect before the AV program has fully downloaded and scanned the file. If this happens, it will appear to hang, but eventually, the AV program should time out, and give up.
