Just choose one security suite.  Some people make the mistake of thinking more is better, when in fact having multiple scanning programs will cause them to conflict with each other.

 

Just a thought.


 

This is priceless advice if they're the same type of security.  But if you have an anti-virus program, you will also want an anti-spyware program, and may want other software to do data backups and regular maintenance.  Microsoft Security Essentials is mainly an anti-virus, so anyone who uses it should also have an anti-spyware program.  Some features left out of it as well are a backup utility or a tweaking utility, such as those included with the Norton 360.  That's what I meant by 'comprehensive'.
