one should not run more than one virus scanner on a system at a time... this
includes today's active scanner stuff where a scanner is running all the
time... running more than one virus scanner at the time /should/ cause
problems because their signatures look like parts they are looking for... this
is to be expected and if it doesn't happen, then something else is wrong...

so, the gist is on a BBS machine, one likely does not want to run an active
virus scanner if they are trying to run other scanners to scan uploaded files
from their users... in today's world, this shouldn't be much of a problem
because users generally don't upload files like they used to do before the
internet came along...
