I have had trouble in the past with AVG and with Spybot and am now running the above....In name they are coping with .....Malware...Spyware.......viruses.
Do they conflict ? are they covering the same areas too many times, if so which one do I drop. They are the Free versions.
My system is XP with 52 GB H:D: and 1 GB Ram so I dont want to slow things down. Thanks for any advice, I dont know one from another.

"Do they conflict ?"
No. If, as you say, you are running the free versions, then neither Malwarebytes nor SuperAntiSpyware will actually be doing anything (real time protection is available only in the paid for versions), unless you actually open them and run a scan.

"and 1 GB Ram so I dont want to slow things down"

I'd suggest upgrading the RAM, you are at the bare minimum for most peoples use and £20 or so spent on RAM will make your computer run a lot better.

And as above, all of those security programs are fine.
