Running 2 AV's at once?

[cantona]

Hi

I have been running two Anti-Virus porgrams at once for a while now and never had a problem. But then i read that u shouldnt and i am just wondering if u can?

Is it like the firewall issue eg run only one at one time

Thanx

You should only have 1 enabled firewall (can slow net traffic) and i have 2 AV software Norton and AVG but Norton is they only one that's enabled AVG is there as a backup

but is it safe to run 2 at same time?
