Question by C.V.: Will downloading an antispyware program and an antivirus program mess up my computer?
A few weeks ago, I installed a few antivirus programs and a few anti spyware programs, and it totally crashed my computer. Would it be okay to just have one antivirus program and one antispyware program? Will that crash my computer or not?

Question by Ignatz Mouse: What is a good anti-spyware program I can get for free?
I’ve heard there are free anti-spyware programs and adware programs online but I can’t seem to find any. The ones that say they are free don’t actually remove the spyware. They just scan your computer, find problems and then tell you to buy the program in order to remove the spyware. Actually I don’t mind paying for a good anti-spyware program as long as I know it is going to work.

What’s the difference between an anti-virus and an anti-spyware program?

Question by Sam: What’s the difference between an anti-virus and an anti-spyware program?
So at the moment, I only have a program which says it’s anti spyware (Webroot Spy Sweeper) and was wondering if it also would protect my computer against viruses (and then I wondered what the difference between an Anti-Virus and an Anti-Spyware is). So if SpySweeper doesn’t protect against viruses should I get an anti-virus program? And would it mess up my computer with two security programs, because I’ve heard that if you have two Anti-Viruses on the same computer it will mess up things.

Thanks for any answers.

An antivirus program will protect you from getting any viruses on your computer, and antispyware will concentrate on the spyware programs but will also detect viruses once you already have gotten them, antivirus will reflect and antispyware will remove once you already have them. you cannot have 2 antivirus programs but you can have an anitvirus and an antispyware. for example you can have norton and superantispyware but not norton and mcaffee.
