I believe this is in reference to two fully installed anti virus applications.

The Multi AV Scanning Tool does NOT perform "On Access" scanning and thus can happily
coexist with other fully installed AV applications performing "On Access" scanning.

Generally speaking, it is contraindicated to have two anti virus applications installed and
performing "On Access" scanning. One who is good with software and not a noob, may be able
to have two fully installed anti virus applications installed but has tweaked both so they
don't interfere with each other.
