Runnig more than one spyware at a time?

[Guest]

I've been running Microsoft AntiSpyware for some time. This morning I noticed
that my boss apparently installed Webroot Spy Sweeper on my computer. Is
there a problem with running both programs simutaniously on my computer?
Should I turn one off? If so, which one?

I am a home user and never have too many processes running on my PC, but I
am able to run Spysweeper and Microsoft Antispware for real time protection
with very little conflict. Spysweeper seems to have a better scanner and
detects things that MSAS misses. It also gives somewhat clearer descriptions
of system changes being made when it asks if I want to allow or not allow the
changes. MSAS,however, monitors some settings and processes that Webroot does
not. Spysweeper seems to use more CPUs and memory, and if I get overloaded,
I choose to run MSAS and shut down Spysweeper. I am no expert, but I have
been using them both for months, know their peculiarities, and have few
problems with either of them.
