threat fire of any use when I have a better protection?

I am getting so many benefits from avg its really good, and if I see my threat fire security its so quite, it does not do anything except for causing start up issues i.e. only incase if I use MBAM protection along with windows start up

So is it ok if I use threatfire along with avg, becoz its said that if we use more than one security software your security gets reduced by 30% in the background which u don’t even notice

But the reason why I don’t feel like uninstalling threatfire is because they say that threatfire is completely different from other products it doesn’t require any definitions to protect u, but it has a behavior based protection which learns your application behavior and according gives you alert like when someone is trying to capture your key strokes secretly whereas all other products rely on definitions without which they are quiet

So should I uninstall threatfire as I have avg which has got many good features like active surf shield etc, of course I have separate anti rootkit tools, I also have spybot sd turned OFF, MBAM turned ON so why threatfire

it is up to you.. if you want to run AVG, MBAM, and threatfire, together, in realtime, i don't see a problem with that..

however, i will say that it is not good to run too many security-related programs, together, in realtime, because "windows" is not designed in such a way that it can handle them all..

i would not say that running AVG, MBAM, and "threatfire", and a firewall, together, in realtime, was "too many".. still, i try to be careful not to have too many security-programs, running together, in realtime..

if there is some problem, like your computer's being slow to bootup, maybe you can adjust some settings, to help with that problem..

like i said before, i think it is up to you whether or not you want to use "threatfire".. i have never tried using threatfire, but it seems that a lot of people like it..

In my opinion each one of them behaves differently and targets the threat space differently. Acting as one will enchance your security.
on Today's machines (2007+) the few micro seconds lost due to TF installed amount nothing to the days lost attempting to recover the system and any dmg done to it and to your personal life.
