AVG Zone Alarm & Windows Defender?

Question

My windows live onecare trial is about to expire and had so many probs am not going to pay for it. Is it safe to run AVG anti virus, Zone Alarm firewall & Windows defender? And is there anything else required?

Answer 1

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/... On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

AVG Zone Alarm & Windows Defender is a good choice and you should only need AVG rootkit detector free that should be enough protection to use,as i wouldn't 'go over board' running too many AV,antispy programs as it is will only slow down your computer.

AVG anti spyware.Or better Spyblaster which keeps them out
rather than yo checking for them.I use it with Ad-aware 2007.
Antivir Personal is better again than AVG.I have Zone Alarm
Firewall -Spyblaster.Ad-aware2007 Antivir Personal.Go to File
Hippo and read up on them.Click and read.

Answer 5

I run all three with no problem. You might want to add spywareblaster. Oh, I have Antivir, not AVG, but I don't think that would be a problem.
