|
|
Hi,
Will Malwarebytes, (The full paid for version that runs all the time), happily co-exist with AVG free on a computer?
Regards,

I don't know is there something wrong with my AVG free or smthg, but when i try to use some other security software with it, computer goes very slow. In my eyes, AVG free isn't very trustable also.

As a general rule, running more than one active security product for a given role on the same machine is a bad idea. So two AV scanners, or two anti-spyware products are likely to get confused about each other.
Two firewalls might be happy, especially if one is the built in Windows firewall as a third party one can be written to co-exist nicely with that if needed.

I use Malwarebytes with Avira, it works fine, but you have to install Malwarebytes AFTER AVG

I run both full versions of malwarebytes and I've experienced no problems.
