The same is true with McAfee. I have both programs, and check

I have McAfee VirusScan, which I've been using for a long time, and a
Cheyenne virus scanner which I didn't even install because I gathered
that having 2 scanners installed on the same machine can cause
problems. Read this from Eliashim, for example:
We do not recommend having two Anti-virus products on one computer is
not a good idea as they both hold within them information about
viruses - and this may result in one program finding non-existent
viruses in the other... What we call false alarms. Also both programs
try to probe the computer's workspace i.e. memory, HD, etc. conflicts
are bound to occur!
Now I hear that many people use several scanners. Should I install
Cheyenne?
Thank you.
