    AVG and SuperAntiSpyware


    Hi,

    I have AVG free anti-virus.
    I also have SuperAntiSpayware wich I use for on-demand scanning
    with real-time protection disabled.
    Is it a problem to allow Super to have real-time protection....?
    Someone suggested not to have more than one anti-virus.
    Is Super's real-time protection an anti-virus....?

    I have been trying to understand the difference for a long time.

    Thanks,
    BBDS

    Welcome to Seven Forums.

    Couple years old but still stands.
    SuperAntiSpyware vs AVG - SUPERAntiSpyware.com

    SUPERAntiSpyware vs Antivirus - SUPERAntiSpyware.com
    Someone suggested not to have more than one anti-virus.
    True.
    Is Super's real-time protection an anti-virus....?
    No.

    A lot of people here run MSE & Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for on demand scans.

    One of the laptops here has AVG Anti Virus Pro plus SuperAntiSpyware Pro with real time enabled.
    Has been this way for years & all is well.
    Would recommend you enable it asap.
