compatability

[r2baruch]

I use XP-Home-SP2. I run the following: WinPatrol, Windows Defender (MS), Kaspersky AV, SpywareGuard, ZoneAlarm and S&D with Resident and TeaTimer. Are there likely to be any compatability issues between S&D and the other secutiry programs?

I noted that these programs are not listed in the "compatibility" section on the S&D site. Does that mean they are compatible or incompatible or just that they have not been checked?

Thanks.

Hello.

I know of no compatability issues with S&D Resident/TeaTimer, WinPatrol, Windows Defender, Kaspersky AV, and SpywareGuard.

That said; S&D Resident/TeaTimer, WinPatrol, Windows Defender, and SpywareGuard all offer real time protection capability. It could become annoying if all are enabled to give pop-up warnings.

ZoneAlarm has caused problems in the past by removing some of Spybot's immunization.

I am using all those programs/tools too, and I never noticed any compatability issues :)
