Hey SnoopZ thanks for that, it works a treat.

I did read about turning off NNTP scanning in the Avast Forums however they were saying that problem was fixed in the 1.7.xx versions but maybe a recent Avast update has changed the scanning parameters.

What I find strange is that I've been using Grabit with Avast since I changed to Avast for over 3 years and never had this problem before.
