2 anti-virus programs

From: Bill Fitzgerald
DearMYRTLE,
Just read your latest column in the EVERTON'S GENEALOGICAL HELPER MAGAZINE (Sept/Oct 2005) issue. You said that you run an anti-virus program called Panda between running Norton Anti-Virus. I tried to install the Panda and it said I was running McAfee anti-virus software and that I had to uninstall it before installing Panda.

Did you have the same issue when installing Panda on your system with the Norton product on it? Do I really have to uninstall the McAfee each time I want to install the Panda program?

DearBILL,
Ol' Myrt here does a Panda ActiveScan ONLINE, by going to www.Pandasoftware.com. Today, the link to the free online scan is in the lower left hand corner.

It is not possible to install 2 antivirus programs on a computer without conflict as you've noted.

Happy family tree climbing!
Myrt :)
