what should i do. · DIGIT-ARC

i was about to download and install Mcafee antivirus from aol site (it's free to it's members),

checked on the mcafee website that certain programs are not compatible with mcafee,

which includes

acronis trueimage (i have installed this on my machine since 2005)

I was having mcafee earlier but there were no problems then, and now when the free and fully functional version has come to my notice., i can't install it.,

i wanted to know that should I install mcafee and then shift to another AV solution if I face problems in updating or any other prob related to mcafee.
or choose another AV ?
i'll never uninstall acronis from my system, it's a great software...

please suggest.... totally confused.

thanks in advance

Mcafee is not a best antivirus.Instead shift to Avast free edition.

yup,

avast is free , i don't want to start the antivirus war here again

but if i could keep both on same machine i.e.
mcafee and acronis, simultaneously.

Why would you want to keep mcafee in spite of knowing that it'd create problems..?? IMHO, Mcafee is not worth taking the risk for. Avoid it.
