Re: OK to run Ad-Aware, Windows Defender, and Avast all together?

Antivirus programs (Avast, in your case) are different to antispyware (AdAware and Windows Defender). The general rule is one antivirus, one firewall and several antispyware, so you're ok.

Personally, I wouldn't bother with Windows Defender as you're using the much better Ad-Aware already, but it's up to you.
