...and possible other issue, here we go.
I run AVG free shit, all upto date etc, but every half hour the email component is telling me it is connecting to a pop3 server at adsl-b4-64-94.telepac.pt When I enter this address into my browser bar I get asked to download a file called default.hta, contents can be posted if needed.
For the life of me I have no idea what it is, nothing out of the ordinary running, every virus scanner I try finds nothing, and every adware scanner also finds nothing.
Anyone offer any help?
:edit: shit, also, anyone know how I can set up the AVG email part to only allow the pop3 and smtp servers I have set in OE to access, I could not get it working so it is set to auto and will allow anything ATM, hence the above shit.

Yep, newest version fully updated.
No big issue, my brother does all this shit for a living so he is examining the info I have provided him, and I have been keeping an eye out for other odd behaviour and any unknown apps running, so far nothing out of the ordinary so far.

I'm getting this too and I believe it is because some users of emule have it configured to use the email port number to avoid being port blocked. This can cause some software to think it is actually recieving email, so it tries to scan it.
if there is any time that you do not have emule/donkey running see if it still happens.
