Hi Patti,
even the AV programs recommend not doing that.

They may see each others files as a virus, due to some of the names of files
being the same as virus.
They may also cancel each other out leaving you unprotected..
You can have 2 programs on your computer, just do not have them both active
at the same time. 

Shut one down before enabling the other.

I run 2 anti-virus programmes.- AVG and PC-cillin.
AVG is a freebie and I have paid for PC-cillin. I have been told I should
not be running 2 as they could be "fighting" each other!
Any thoughts on the matter please.
Patti
