AVG free update interferes with emails

AVG Performance
1

I've used AVG Free for many years and had no issues with it until recently. In the last two or three months I noticed after getting an update, a day or two later my email program can't download any emails. I'm using Thunderbird. I ended up deleting AVG and reinstalling it and that fixed the issue until I got the next update. If there's some setting that needs changing I wish someone could tell me what it is. Thanks
