No it is not. The two programs will probably interfere with each other. For example norton's firewall might think some mcafee componets are malicious and block them. You know the old saying two is better than one. Well when it comes to to antimalware software this maxim does not apply. Having mcafee and norton actually make you more vulnerable. So chose the one that best meets your needs and get rid of the other one.

∙ 10y agoHave you checked Norton compatibility with McAfee? I will recommend installing 2 anti virus software only if they are compatible with each other. Since Norton eats up much of the system space, it is not wise to install incompatible security software such as McAfee without uninstalling Norton security suite as this may lead to system freeze, application crash or system crash issues. Try to enhance your PC protection by selecting some light weight antivirus software such as Immunet, ZoneAlarm, Hitman Pro etc which are compatible with Norton security software.
