I was wondering how to remove Norton from my system as I couldnt find the uninstall option in my program list.

Someone suggested to format the system for which I was scared, now relieved. Will check the norton support section. Yes you can. It depends if you install compatible antiviruses. Ive tride NOD32 with Avira and works great. Even if both of them were updated, there are viruses that are detected with NOD32 which cant be detected by avira, and vice versa. I have not tried installing more than one anti-virus program on any of my computers.

I believe some software will conflict with each other, because usually such software does active scanning of any files downloaded into the system.

I can't imagine how two or more anti-virus programs will be concurrently at work scanning files for virus as they come into the system. Once a friend of mine asked me to help her install Norton Anti-virus onto her PC.

I didn't know what else she had previously installed, but as I was proceeding with the Norton installation, a message came out saying that there was another anti-virus program installed, and that I will have to delete that program in order to successfully install Norton. So my guess is having more than one anti-virus program active on your PC is probably not allowed.

I heard some people say it's better not to install two anti virus softwares for the same computer because they may be a conflict. However, I do install two anti virus softwares.

One of them is small and the other is a big one. I don't find anything wrong with it. My computer keeps virus free until now. I love China. You can install two different anti-virus software but only one will be used and detected in your Operating System. It doesn't matter whether it be two or more, as your the security section of the Operating System only recognize anti-virus software to use.

As with the new anti-virus to install, from my experience, I don't really have much impression with McAfee, it is easily by-pass by worms. I recommend you uninstall the previous version of your anti-virus software and install a new one. Now System Mechanic has made it easier than ever to install the product on multiple computers.
