369385 2005-07-05 05:59:00 It is recommended not to have more than 1 AV on a computer to prevent unnecessary resident shield conflict. As PCtek mentioned, I myself do not trust ZA's built in AV as well. If your main purpose of getting ZA SS is for AV protection, stick to AVG or Avast or NOD32. I'd tried out ZA SS few weeks ago and it seemed to be ultra-sensitive on IMs like MSN Messenger and alike. I couldn't even sign in! In the end, I revert back to ZA Pro.

You can turn off its AV.

It is the IM security that is giving me the headache. I'd tried everything, from setting the permission level to the lowest, to reinstalling MSN Messenger and ZA several times. Nope, nothing is helping.
