No, I suggested the person run MSE antivirus and Malwarebytes (2 utilities simultaneously), and not MSE and malwarebytes and Super AntiSpyware (3 utilities including 1 antivirus and 2 malware prevention utilities). I happen to know for 100% fact that MSE and Malwarebytes can exist simultaneously as I run this configuration on my desktops and netbook. This information can be found on the Malwarebytes tech support forum. There are also other ways to insure there are no conflicts when running both scans at the very same time as I do "Every" time I scan my computer--every couple of weeks. In short, my original post was correct, its just that one must pay close attention to the distinction between an antivirus utility and what is commonly thought of as a malware prevention utility such as malwarebytes.

Having more than one anti-malware program installed on the computer is not a problem, but they should be run at different times to avoid conflicts. Also, Only one anti-virus program should be resident on your machine, but an on-line anti-virus solution can be used as a separate scan. HTH, Rick Justice Tomorrow's another day, another way! and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph FreeTech" <joseph.freet...@gmail.com> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Sunday, September 15, 2013 12:57 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] windows defender vs. super antivirus Hi George and others, Unless Super AntiSpyware has vastly improved in the last couple of years, a currently updated Malwarebytes pro is a much better solution. Windows defender does not appear to run registry scans which Malwarebytes Pro will do. For best protection, I suggest one uses MSE and Malwarebytes pro both running simultaneously. Adding more than one malware utility will not necessarily result in better malware scans and can possibly create conflicts in that the same files will be scanned at the same time. You also don't want to run your processor more or harder than it has to run as you can use some of those processing cycles for other tasks.

I use Mywarebytes pro. That must be similar. Thanks.

I just did a quick scan and nothing was reported. I then did a quick scan with super antispyware and it found 2 items. --- Please visit my web page It’s motivational, inspirational with a touch of humor There is also a very extensive resource list for the blind http://www.LennyMcHugh.com International Brotherhood of Magicians member #43990R **** Be kind to your email friends.
