2 spyware programs that can slow PC’s speed
Q: I downloaded Windows Defender and have Windows XP. I also have McAfee AOL security suite. I disabled the spyware program in the security suite. I receive errors from MacAfee saying I am not fully protected. Should I re-enable the spyware suite with MacAfee? My hunch is that the spyware program integrates with their other programs. On the other hand, I do not want to slow my program with too many applications running. A: I see no reason why you shouldn’t run the McAfee spyware program, especially when you’re running all the other programs in the suite. If you do this, then uninstall or disable Windows Defender. You could run both, but why slow down your system and/or further complicate your environment? Just make sure you keep everything autoupdating successfully.
