Thanks Don

After the driver crash my system was completely rebuilt   i.e. the F drive 
became my new C drive, the Operating System (XP SP2)  reloaded.

It was at that time that AVG was added and it has worked for many months. 
Then suddenly some mails arrived in the Inbox, scanned by AVG but without 
any content - not all mails, just some (for example all PC BUILD mails 
arrive intact but many other do not). It is mostly text only messages that 
get stripped, but sometimes mails that contain graphics get stripped too.

Then the problem went away for a couple of months. It was only after I 
loaded a new Pro Version of AVG that the problem re emerged. It may be 
co-incident.

I will follow your advise and disable the AVG mail scanner annd see if all 
mails get through.

Kind regards
Richard
