So my question is does Google mail do a virus scan before I receive my emails?
This is easily fixed, open Avast 5, on the left, click real-time shields, mail shield, on the right, click expert settings then select SSL Accounts, then click Add.

Input these and it should scan incoming mail fine.

For IMAP use these.

Host Name - imap.virginmedia.com
Protocol - IMAP
Port - 993
Encryption - SSL

For POP3 use these.

Host Name - pop3.virginmedia.com
Protocol - POP3
Port - 995
Encryption - SSL

And for outgoing mail use this for POP3 or IMAP

Click add again and add this.

Host Name - smtp.virginmedia.com
Protocol - SMTP
Port - 465
Encryption - SSL
