Whoa! You're running MSE and real-time SAS together? What happens if both
programs detect the same malware threat and simultaneously attempt to
quarantine it? Seems to me like that could be a recipe for disaster. As
long as your two real time programs don't encounter the same threat, you're
probably okay. But, if one of these days, they both encounter the same
threat, your system could freeze up or crash because of the potential
conflict.

Hi Matthew;
No, you don't need to stop the SAS Real Time from running. You can run
the
MSSE & SAS
Real Time at the same time. Hope this helps. Take care.

Ahh ok cool. I am running the free version of malware bites but have the
paid version of super anti spyware. Do I need to disable real time
protection if that is what it uses? I am going to take a look at it but
any extra help would be great, thanks.
