We must not leave our computers susceptible to any computer viruses. Keep it protected with an antivirus program that you trust. But is it right to install multiple antivirus programs at the same time?
The following steps and precautions must be observed when installing antivirus software:
1) To get real-time protection, install only one on-access scanner and put a shortcut on the desktop.
2) Decide which antivirus program you trust more and want to use. Even if we can install parallel scanners that support manual search commands, it is safe and advised to deactivate the current antivirus program if you want to use the new antivirus.
3) When installing multiple Avira Antivirus products, refrain from installing web filters, and firewalls as filters and firewalls can impair computer performance and internet connection or speed especially if an antivirus repaired only some parts of the file.
Some antivirus programs wrongly identify some files or websites, or URLs as malicious. They are called False Positives or False Alarms. So we must be careful when installing antivirus software. Download or install only from trusted sites and antivirus suppliers.
