SUPER antispyware - can I run it alongside AVG Antivirus

[Solitaire]

Hello

I joined today because I needed to get rid of a Trojan and I used the advice in your forums.  As instructed I downloaded and ran SUPERAnti-spyware and fingers crossed it has detected and sorted the problem.

My question is this.  Is is okay to have SUPERanti-spyware and AVG running at the same time on my PC?

Thank you

Sol

If you are using the free version of SAS then it offers no real time protection and adjusting the settings in the guide will ensure it does not run at startup.

AVG and SAS will run along with each other as long as you are using the free version of AVG. The paid version of AVG has antispyware protection and just like antivirus and firewalls you only want to run one at a time.

1 antivirus
1 firwall
1 real time antispyware

You can have multiple antispyware software installed and run them as needed.
