Can You Actually Use 3 Antivirus Programs On The Computer?

By admin Posted in: AntiVirus

    You could scan with 3 different anti-virus programs separately, but it isn’t recommended to have all 3 running at the same time.

    mm it’s not really wise but actually it can be done if done correctly .. but problems will arise .. and u’ll probably have a major slow down if they are running together …
    however u can have an anti-spyware program another program that is an antivirus a third that is a firewall.
    for example I used to have avira : that was my main antivirus
    at the same time I had Super antispyware running for spyware
    and comodo for firewall ( even though it also had antivirus i turned it off) and just used the firewall
    and threatfire for behavioral virus and spyware protection
    and they all ran together smoothly :)
    another way is to have 1 Antivirus running have it as the main antivirus, and the others turned off and just use them to scan ur computer weekly.
    for example i had NOD32 and AVG free .. I had NOD32′s Shields up and AVG turned off completely but i just used it sometimes to scan the computer ( while i turned off NOD32) … cz one antivirus might not detect everything.
    Currently I just use Avast free and a firewall … and very happy with it :)

    No, don’t EVER do that! They will all conflict with one another and can cause problems. I had two on my computer once and had to get the hard drive replaced. Only use one antivirus.

    if u have one anti-virus u can use any of these two with no problem they are immunet protect or threatfire they will run along side your main anti-virus both are very good but i like immunet better get at cnet.com good luck
