Hi

I am trying to configure your software with AVG 2011 and can't get it to work. The required command line is

c:\program files (x86)\avg\avg10\avgscana.exe /CLEAN /ARC /HEUR /SCAN="c:\file.bat"

2 problems that I have found:

1. Your software does not pass the = in the command line
2. It always puts a space after the parameter block

I have to be able to scan incoming downloads, relying on the automatic resident shield is not sufficient.

Any suggestions

You can try using Post Processing to perform this task instead:
1. In 'tools->Options->Downloading->Post Processing' add a new post process
2. Set the File extension as *.*;
3. Set the program as c:\program files (x86)\avg\avg10\avgscana.exe
4. Set the arguments as /CLEAN /ARC /HEUR /SCAN=[FILE]
5. Make sure 'Auto-run action after download completes' is checked

This should allow you to scan your downloads.

I assume that if I use this method, I cannot do post processing based on file type as all file types are going to go through Virus scanning?

If more than one post process is set to Auto-run then each one that matches the file extension will be run in turn.
You can set the order of priority that post processing will be performed, items higher in the list will be performed before items lower in the list.
