I am running VISTA 32 bit and was just able to grab a 1 year free license from here
24 hours only: Get Ad-Aware Pro for free ($29.95 value) | Software Deals - Download.com
Is anyone running these 2 programs (real time) together? Thanks in advance, Josea
-
No you shouldn't run it together.
I believe Avast! 5 would be much lighter on the RAM and CPU.. Detection is quite okay.. -
I don't run them together because I found that I don't really need Ad-Aware Pro ever. I do use Avast! though and it has never let me down.

Guys, thanks so much for the quick responses. I will stay with the free version of avast and keep the Ad-Aware in my downloads folder!

You might as well replace Ad-aware with Malwarebytes (because it's better and faster).
General rule is this: Use AV with an active protection at all times, and keep a separate scanner such as MBAM as an on-demand one.
Avast 5.0.667 & Ad-Aware Pro version 9
