Installing ChoiceMail on systems with anti-virus products
If you are using an anti-virus program that supports email protection, it is critical that you leave it running with email protection enabled while you are installing and configuring ChoiceMail.

This is necessary so that ChoiceMail can detect this situation and configure itself appropriately so that there are no connection conflicts.

If you disable your anti-virus product, and install ChoiceMail, ChoiceMail will install fine but it will not be able to detect the existence of your anti-virus product. When you subsequently reenable your anti-virus product, ChoiceMail may immediately fail and you will have to take steps to perform a manual configuration to get ChoiceMail working again.

Further, ChoiceMail sometimes cannot detect Norton Anti-Virus 2001 and you MUST modify your ports manually.

This problem does not occur if you are using Norton Anti-Virus 2002 or greater.
