    I have been running Avira 9for 2 days.Before I had the 8th version.Since 9th version has spyware protection I am thinking to disable the real time guard in SAS.But in Avira's page it says the free version is different from the paid version because paid has the enchanced spyware protection.So should I disable the SASPro realtime protection?
    I also have the ZAP from a promotion.I disabled the spyware part of it today.I am not using the script blocking etc.So is it wise to uninstall it and install the free PCTools firewall to save some system resources since ZAP uses too much RAM.

    I would leave SAS on. Better be safe than sorry.
