Default [Resolved] How much is too much

Hi guys,
just a quick curiousity post.

At present I have Pestpatrol,bitdefender,spywareguard,spyware blaster and Norton all running in the background.

Should I elimanate any of these and is one of those programmes doing the same as another.

There seems to be no conflict and my comp seems to be running ok with all of them.

Thanks Cart

hi cartandpeg, Norton and BitDefender do the same thing - i'd suggest getting rid of Norton.

There is such thing as too much in regards to Anti-virus unfortunately.

Hi, Only run one AV because most of them conflict with each other causing problems with detection and removal and some times this can causes infections to get through.
