Even if they are "designed to work together" as you think, it is likely that a unknown conflict exists somewhere. This is very likely when someone uses as many applications as you do. I mean, I know you like trying programs and all but that in addition to using many programs at the same time its got to take its toll sometime. Its just a matter of when.

I also like to try programs but I do it virtually. No harm to the PC. Let me tell you something Umbra, I can not remember the last time that I heard a sound coming out of my computers, that's because I don't use tanks for security.:)

Greetings

i agree it "may" happen,but it is also true for just a single apps installed.

I use them since quite a long time now, testing malwares, running heavy softs, and never had BSODs with them, the only crash i had, is when i use just OAP alone...

I pay for NIS albeit at the very low price of $23.99 2yr 3pc subscription (which is up from $14.99 two years ago). Keys are emailed to me after payment and have worked flawlessly for over 3yrs now just renewed last week as a matter of fact. Now I did not just crawl out of a hole so I know these keys must be bootlegged or whatever you call it I just don't ask questions and keep a copy of the payment invoice.
