Just bought myself a new tower with W7.  On installing my fav security programs I'm getting a message that the above programs do not work well if both installed.  I've used them for a long time with XP Sp3.  I've already got rid of Nortons and have Avast running.  Still got Malware Bytes to install.  What should I do about the AdAware / Spybot thingy??

Install Ad Aware and Spywareblaster, now I'm not saying one is better than the other just that Spybot has something similar to Spywareblaster built in so if you can only install one install Ad Aware and Spywareblaster.
