The only way I've found to deal with the persistent email scanning in AVG Free is to un-install it, then do a custom install without the email scanning feature.

My solution is not to use OE for email. Use Thunderbird instead, AVG
doesn't scan Thunderbird emails, but then I prefer Thunderbird anyway.

I don't use OE for email either, I use Netscape, but the same problem exists with it and AVG Free scanning email unless you don't install the email scanning.
