    I read in another thread that you should only one one anti-virus program on you computer - as opposed to 2 or more... why is that?

    Running more than one antivirus or firewall will cause conflicts on your computer. It is NOT recommended!

    BJ,

    Should is disinstall one then? or is it ok to have them both installed so long as i use only one? Also do you know how I would check to see if my Windows XP firewall is enabled?

    You must pick ONE and uninstall the other.

    Click Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall
