I have now installed AVG anti virus free software on my computer. (will see
if this is a good choice)
I have a problem as I need to adjust the setting in "Windows Live Messenger"
in the file transfer section where it states "scan files with"...
AVG offers various options, however I am not sure which is the correct option.
Is there anyone who can help on this?

/SE
