Running More Than One AV

  • Thread starter Thread starter Jim Walker

What happens if you run two or more AV programs at the same time?

That depends on which two. Since they would be performing similar
activities, expect that either (1) they will conflict or (2) one will not
really do much, because the other one always gets there first.

However, it is an acceptable (and even recommended) choice to have a
second AV software that is run only 'on-demand'. That's an especially good
idea for checking out downloads before installation and e-mail attachments
before opening.
