Thanks, I read it.
Looks like less people than I thought have common sense.

@ O.P,
Two reasons why two A-vs should not be on a single PC.

1) They consume resources and the slow down will be apparent.

2) The false-positive detection rate will climb and the user gets the "trembles"

3) I have KIS2009 and tried to install "Threatfire" and it was crash time! Since i take Backup and Restore, not much damage was done.

The PC may/will tolerate even two OS, for ex., MS and Linux, but not two A-Vs!

Yeah, the slow down would really be a big issue. McAfee is the only anti-virus I have on my PC, but even that sometimes causes the computer to freeze up!

You have feedback in this thread, not sure why you are starting another for more of the same.

Hi, RootbeaR,
This thread is a more general one. Here you can share your views towards having multiple antivirus in a system. I'd started this thread just to inform you about some security products which allows to use more than one AV simaltaneously.
But the newer thread is more specific. There i needed your feedback about the newer free security suite (ESA) in the market.
So,
Anyone interested to review ESA Security Products, please write in that thread.

Many anti-virus programs won't even install properly unless the other is completely uninstalled.
