Yes, you are right friend, I meant anti-spyware I have McCafee and prevx1 and I was asking if I shou

ahead and download an anti-spyware. There is one that is free for personal computers I saw advertised in PC magazine called

spywareterminator.com. I thank all of you for answering, but follow-up comments would be much appreciated.

I gather that all three programs on my laptop would indeed slow it down, however, will it slow it pretty bad and shall I just rely on McCafee and the virus cleaner prevx1? The viruses were gone with the downloading of prevx1 McCafee did not remove them even after scanning 4- or 5 times. thanx friends

Hi there,

There really is no need for another layer of protection as Prevx1 is already protecting you from not only viruses, but also spyware, adware, trojans, rootkits, hackers and more.

It is a little known fact that Prevx1 also currently has the strongest protection and removal capabilities of any security suite available today, so I would imagine having Prevx1 and McAfee as your backup will be more than sufficient.

There are a lot of people on here who recommend question askers to load up there systems with 3, 4, 5, or even more security programs which really aren't necessarry. These are most likely people who have AVG, Spybot and Ad-aware installed which are simply not as good programs as they were a couple of years ago (these three used in conjunction are only protecting users from 60% of threats). This is why people then need another couple of programs on top of these, when in reality they should be dropped as they are sub-standard programs.
