Andy:
The typical advice is that you should have only 1 "real time" "anti virus" program. MSE protects in real time, so it may not play nice with other "anti virus" apps like AVG, Avast, etc. But MSE doesn't seem to conflict with any of the applications I use (see my earlier post in this thread).
But that leaves aside the basic question--what is needed and what is superfluous?
I have heard it said that MSE is strong against viruses and maybe not as strong against malware, but of course I have no way of knowing.
And there is confusion over naming. Does an "anti virus" application have no effect on "malware"? Vice versa? Which apps are exclusively "anti malware" and which are exclusively "anti virus" or "anti spyware"?
