Compatibility of Dr.Web for Linux with anti-virus products of other developers is not guaranteed. Due to the fact that the installation of two anti-viruses on one computer can cause errors of the operating system and a loss of important data, it is strongly recommended that you uninstall anti-virus products of other developers before the installation of Dr.Web for Linux.
If your computer already has another Dr.Web anti-virus product installed from the universal package (.run), and you want to install one more Dr.Web anti-virus product (for example, you have Dr.Web for UNIX File Servers installed from the universal package, and in addition to it you want to install Dr.Web for Linux), make sure that the version of the installed product is the same as the version of Dr.Web for Linux you want to install. If the version to be installed is newer than the installed product version, before installation update the installed Dr.Web product to the version of the product you want to install additionally. |
