Default Re: Too many spyware programs?

Hello,well never used Advanced WindowsCare Personal but I usaly run spybot/AVG 8/PCGuard and windows defender plus once a month windows live scan from Microsoft I have never experienced any conflicts.

If all seeme to be running well then keep them all.

I do not see any problems.

They shouldn't conflict with eachother, I run AVG8, Spybot, & Zone Alarm with no probs.
Are you experiencing any issues that led you to ask this question?

I'm also wondering why you asked this question?? Any problems with your dad's computer?

As for me, I'm installed Advanced WindowsCare personal, CCleaner, Spybot, Spyware Blaster & ThreatFire...and so far they didn't gave me the problems.
