Qihoo has the capability to exist with other security software. So no problem pairing it with other security software.
It won't crash. Files are accessed by one of the two security software. If it clears it as safe then it is accessed by second security software. If second security software also sees it as safe then it is allowed to run.

Here I need to ask the reverse of what prevails. Can you explain why it will be such a sequential access to files by 360 and the other one?
Let me mention what Kaspersky states (in general)
The antivirus software has to be allowed to penetrate to a suitable level within the computer… deep into the system kernel. This is because the antivirus product needs to intercept system events, deep within the computer. The intercepted data is then passed to the antivirus engine for analysis – so the antivirus scanner can scan intercepted files, network packets, and other critical data.

Computer crash
If there are two antivirus programs running on a single computer, they will each try to install interceptors into the same part of the system kernel. This is likely to result in conflicts between the antivirus monitors – probably with one of the following consequences:
  • One of the two antivirus programs will fail to intercept system events.
  • Each antivirus program’s attempts to install parallel interceptors will cause the entire computer system to crash.
Even Qihoo must be following the pattern. Qihoo may interfere or just slowdown system when these realtime scanning settings are turned on-

If you follow minimal settings of 360 for supplementation, do share here.
Thanks.
