It is Ewido Security Suite Version 3.5 - only the free version and not
always running. I just use it to scan on a weekly basis after updating the
scanner. What will it interfere with?
See below:
> You need :
> 1 firewall -always ON - Yes, XP firewall is always on
> windows updates-automated - I have them set to alert me - slow Internet
connection so I don't want it to automatically download.
> 1 antivirus with real time protection-always ON - NAV Antivirus 2006
always on
> 1 antispyware with real time protection -always ON - What would be a good
one to use - I don't have one now
> 1 antispyware without real-time protection - Ad-Aware and the Ewido as
above.
Also - I do occasionally run the Panda Active Scan that you mention as well.
Thanks!
