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.

I’ve read and heard so many great reviews about it, so if I have Norton, Super anti spyware, can I run malwarebytes along with them?
