AntiSpyware's

Layback Bear said:

Here is a basic rule of the thumb. Use one antivirus and one firewall active at a time. (Starts with your computer starting). Use the rest of the programs you have chosen as on demand only. (It does nothing until you tell it to, update, scan ect.) Never scan with more than one program at a time.

MalwareBytes is not an anti-virus program nor a firewall.

I'm running 3 programs for anti malware...
SUPERAntiSpyware latest with license.
MalwareBytes latest with license
and SpywareDoctor latest with license

Hi BeyLIN & welcome.
You say that you have SuperAntiSpyware with licence. That implies that you are running the paid version. Correct?

It seems that BeyLIN has a license for all three. Although my preference is MBAM, Jan's is SAS, and I'm sure someone else is likely to come along and say they prefer SpywareDoctor.

My advice -- use the software in real-time that you like the best. :)

I concur - No argument with this advice....

I concur with what the others have said about one real-time monitor. However, even though generally not recommended, many people with an Antivirus Suite which includes real-time protection have not had problems with a separate anti-malware program such as MBAM or SAS.

a-squared (a2) also works very well together with other Antivirus-programs, but in v5 you might have to change the "File guard"-settings to "Scan only programs before they are executed".
i´ve also tested the other 2 settings, running a2 together with Avast 5 & MSE, i have NOT noticed any problems.

@hackerman1 -- BeyLIN already has overkill with three licensed anti-malware software programs.

Corrine: oh yes, i have noticed that...
i only wanted to point out that a2 also works well with other A/V´s.
i replied to you....
i´ve now edited my post above.
