801618 2009-08-16 10:30:00 Why because they can, the same way 2 firewalls can conflict with each other Speedy Gonzales (78)
801619 2009-08-16 13:34:00 PJ: 2 AVS can cause a huge amount of problems because they may both be trying to remove and lock the same file, and attempting to delete a file from the other AV's quarantine/vault(an infinite cycle...), or I've sometimes seen the other AV attack the other based on behavioural recognition...

It's OK to have as many On Demand scanners as you want, but just don't have more than one On Access scanner.
