AVG is blocking Thunderbird email client

HI I have the same problem. I am using latest version of Thunderbird emai and untill last week no probs, now AVG blocks emails both in and out. I tried repair as per earlier advice, no success.

Can you help? Thank you, Lena Lebedev

I use Mozilla Thunderbird as my email client, and I'm having to turn off AVG Email Shield in order for any emails to come through, which kind of defeats the purpose of HAVING AVG.

I do most of my email via webmail, only using Thunderbird every couple of weeks or so. Last time I opened Thunderbird, I did not have this problem; now I do. Help!
Thank you, that fixed it. (The issue was specifically with Thunderbird downloading messages.)

Meanwhile, please repair AVG program once, as this isn't the usual behavior.
