Is it ok to run both at the same time? Ive just installed the new 8.1 version of adaware and its ad-watch live! thing is currently active. (registry and network parts are off).

I haven't used Ad-aware in ages .... It may or may not work along side MSE, you'll just have to try it :p

SuperAntiSpyware works with MSE, so experiment!

Have you installed version Free of Ad-aware or other paid version?
Version Free doesn't have AV module, others version have AV but I'm not sure how good implemented AV module in Ad-aware is. I have never seen any test about this AV. Anyways it is not recommend to have two AV's or two FW in the same time in your system.

From site:
Product Comparison Chart - Lavasoft

It looks like smth like HIPS monitoring. As far as I know MSE doesn't offer HIPS (prevention) protection but only detection via AV signatures. So this is different approach.
I would recommend you others better HIPS than that in Ad-aware if you like.

OK, do you like when software alerts you about every single action you made (eg. open a file > software ask you if you really want run this executable) or you like more/prefer 'silent' versions of security software?
