[QUOTE="Chris D Wells, post: 239235, member: 26246"] I have used multiple anti-virus programs on my computers and they do work fine together when programmed properly. Yes, there may be conflicts if the programming is not established, but it brings back to the original idea that all anti-virus programs cannot catch everything, although technology has advanced greatly and there are great programs out there. I would be the first to say "do not install/run anti-virus programs simultaneously" if you do not know for sure what you are doing. Unfortunately, I have always felt that this idea was mainly a marketing ploy, as every company wants theirs' to be the "only one". I liked the reply of combo masterchef because it did address this issue directly. Many anti-virus programs are top-heavy because the programs are installed directly to your computer, whereas some programs are light because they use the cloud (simply a offline server), to handle the programming. I would suggest the lighter version for an anti-virus version. [/QUOTE]
