828071 2009-11-08 00:46:00 Because theyre running in the background, and trying to do the same thing. Which is what will happen if you try and run 2 firewalls. They'll conflict and will slow the system down Speedy Gonzales (78)
828072 2009-11-08 01:27:00 While having 2 antiviruses conflict - antispywares do not.
I always run mine at the same time when scanning customers PCs.

It's also interesting to see which ones detect what in comparison./
Yes, if the PC is under-powered it can make it run slower but so what if you have plenty of time.
