I had been using AVG 2011 Free and Malwarebytes, but after getting a glowing review of Norton from an acquaintance, I decided to give Norton a try. I got a two month free trial with my new laptop and had not activated it. I did activate it, got all the updates and uninstalled AVG. I kept Malwarebytes because the person I spoke to said he uses Norton and Malwarebytes. Should Norton be run in safe mode, or is it all right to run it in regular mode while using other computer programs? I have Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
