Am I protected enough now?? Read more please...?

Question

Here is what I have now on my computer:
Ad-Aware, AVG Free (virus protection), CCleaner, Spybot, SpywareBlaster, SuperAntiSpyware, Windows Defender, and ZoneAlarm (firewall).
Should I get another virus program to be safer?

Answer 1

Please ignore everyone so far. Currently, you have a wide range of security and optimization software on your computer. A security expert would tell you to have:

1 antivirus
3 antispyware
1 firewall
1 optimization tool

You have more than enough. Just remember to only have 1 antivirus as 2 or more may conflict BUT this is NOT true with antispyware. Most antispyware programs do not conflict with each other. Keep what you have and trust me its enough. Remember to update them every time you run a scan. This should be at least once a week.

Answer 2

There is such a thing as too much of a good thing! You don't need more than one of each. You have the best antivirus protection in AVG, if you updated it today from the old free version. It should be version 7.5. If it isn't updated, do it now.

Then Ad-Aware and SpyBot are all you really need in the way of anti-spyware and malware remover, and that includes Windows Defender. I had all three, and found that the first two did a much better job of removal than Defender did. You don't need all the others.

Keep the firewall. Uninstall everything else. DON'T DELETE THEM, UNINSTALL THEM FROM ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS!

Answer 3

i think of you're able to setting up an antivirus that's effective than AVG.because of the fact AVG does not detect some viruses to boot because it wont have the flexibility to heal some viruses. you are able to attempt Kaspersky/ Bit defender/ Norton because of the fact they provide greater valuable detection value while in comparison with AVG different configurations seems to be ok

Answer 4

You should only run one spyware, one anti virus and one firewall program at a time as multiple programs can interfere with each other and could cause more damage.....

Answer 5

No, you have more protection than most people>

Answer 6

you should only have one antivirus
