I'm going to try to run AVG, Adaware, and defrag, all at the same time.

Well I have Spybot, Ad-Aware and NAV 2003 running as I post this and I'm listing to an MP3 but I would not attempt to run defrag during these operations. I will stress my system but not attempt to mess with the file system while doing so many other things.

No, I mean RUN them: start AVG scanning, start Adaware scanning, then throw the Defrag switch... and maybe run a Spybot scan while I'm at it.

the killer is DEFRAG, but the others should be OK with the proper power and resources

Running means they where doing just that, running. Ad-Aware was scanning, Spybot was scanning and NAV was scanning. I also had an MP3 playing as well :) but I would not attempt to defrag my HDD while doing all of that not matter how bored I might become.
