benefit What benefit do you expect by disabled e-mail scan ?

Note these comments are AV generic not NOD32 specific

Increased speed of message download and load by taking a step out of the process.
Reduced risk of Mail receipt failure due to proxy failure and timing issues.
Reduced risk of mail corruption through scanning.

--> If I leave a check mark for "Enable POP3 protocol checking" then my mail is delivered to
my TB Inbox without a subject, without a sender, and without any content when I open it.
Only the time of arrival displays. (See screenshot)

---> If I remove the check mark for "Enable POP3 protocol checking" then I have none of the problems.

---> I can access the same messages through my ISP's WebMail without a problem.

This problem is presenting itself in my Thunderbird version 6 and the problem was
also present in my prior version of Thunderbird (version 3.xxxx).
-NOD 4.2.71.2

QUESTION: Am I correct in thinking that other than this bug being a nuisance, there is no security
compromise if I disable Pop3 Protocol Checking because I still have real time file protection and the fact that I still have "Email client protection enabled" ?

EDIT

Resolved the problem by performing a clean uninstall and reinstall of NOD32.
All works well now when I enable "POP3 protocol checking"
