Re: Security Center suddenly reports no antivirus or firewall

No, I can click on the attachment in the e-mail & click "open"
The file shows up on my computer. It's called delrep.bat. But THEN when I
click on the file to open it, I get an error message from windows, that says
"windows found this file is potentially harmful. Windows has blocked access
to this file." AVG basically says Oh well, try repairing your AVG
installation. I guess I can try that, but I hate re-installing something if I
don't have to, other problems could crop up.
