Multiple security systems on my computor?

I am just a basic computor user...e mails,internet surfing,google earth and the like.

My query is this..

I use win 7 and have Microsoft Security Essentials. MSE seems to have a good reputation. I run a security check every week and have done since I bought the computor 3 years ago and it has never yet found anything.

I presume it cannot be 100% effective so I am wondering if I should also use another security system as a backup. Something like Spybot,Ad Aware or AVG etc.

Are there likely to be problems with one system affecting the other ?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
