Spybot S & D and MSSE compatability

[melaniesullivan]

I am running Windows XP on my computer. Is it possible to run (have installed) both Spybot Sd and Microsoft Security Essentials on the same computer? I would like to be able to run both

Hello,

There should not be any problems with the compatibility.
If some parts would conflict, just those parts could be disabled.

That's the way to to disable the resident feature of Spybot - Search & Destroy: run Spybot-S&D, switch to the "Advanced mode" via the menu bar item "Mode" --> hit "YES" --> select "Tools" in the navigation bar on the left --> "Resident" and there you can untick the checkboxes in front of the two tools.
