Re: AV and Malwarebytes together?

[David Gillett <gillettdavid () FHDA EDU>]

I run several tools, including MBAM (Malware Bytes Anti-Malware) on several personal machines, without any difficulty.

I no longer work in EDU, but I find these lists to be very helpful, so I hope you don't mind if I pose a question...

Is anyone running Malwarebytes and AV software together on your PCs?

Or do you have an AV vendor that you think does a good enough job on their own?

We've found Malwarebytes can catch a good amount of stuff our current AV vendor isn't catching, so I'm considering 
running both.  Malwarebytes claims to play nice with most AV vendors.

Thank you,
