As an alternative, you could try using both active protections, but uncheck "Check files when they are opened or copied" in VIPRE. This turns off on-access scanning, but still checks files when they actually execute. It would likely work.

While I have not tested it myself, there is always a chance of system instability due to conflicting actions taken by each app on a single file or process. I would recommend using VIPRE's AP (as it handles older threats as well as the newest) and Malwarebytes for routine scanning to compliment your VIPRE scans.
