Sp2 ?

[Barry]

Is Zone Alarm, AVG, Spybot, Adaware, compatable with SP2s firewall, and
antivirus, etc.......In other words can I run them together, or is that just
overkill??
Thanks
Barry

Hi Barry

If you run ZA, you don't really need the XP Firewall running as well as it
doesn't monitor outgoing access to the Internet. Otherwise all those
programs run well together.

Hi Denny,

I haven't installed yet the SP2, I tried it once but somehow it didn't work
every thing went slow and error, so I uninstalled the SP2.
Yes my computer is compatible with the SP2, that's why I am confused.
I got Norton Internet Security and Mc Afee security center at once. Is it
because their overlapping? should I uninstalled the McAfee and the Norton?

Hi

You don't need both NIS and Mcafee installed. They could cause conflicts
between each other. I don't use either, so you will have to decide which
one to keep. Try disabling each in turn first of all instead of
uninstalling. You will then perhaps be able to get an idea which is better
for your system
