I have 2 anti-virus installed and working online in here but is it ok to install the two or not? but my computer seems ok and no problem. But is it advisable to install the 2 ant-virus ( Free AVG and AVAST)? or only one anti-virus? thnx in advance.

One anti-virus program at a time.
Problem is 2 will fight each other somewhere.

Anti virus softwares eats alot of your computer memory. I suggest you just pick one and always update it. there might be a conflict in background scaning, say when you open a file and requested for virus scan. Same thing with firewall. Make sure you turn off windows xp firewall if you have other installed.

that's continually stated to position in one. that's because of the particular undeniable reality that there will be conflicts between 2 antivirus classes causing unpredictable behaviour. There would nicely be no longer something visibly incorrect yet you would no longer understand there's a situation. in my opinion, have not used AVAST so i visit't advise which to apply. an extra beneficial ingredient is often there are in-built firewall purposes. for this reason, there would nicely be issues of information superhighway connections each and every each and every now and then.

OK that first comment was unnecessarily long. but no do NOT use 2 at a time, you'll crash your computer eventually. and as far as the TRULY best anti virus's they are [ nod32 ] and [ f-secure] look these up and you'll see it.

only use one anti virus programme at a time - due to the way they work you can get conflcits between them which may cause your computer to lock up or keep reseting itself ........
