Q: QuestionIs webroot included in any best buy subscriptions

Asked 9 months ago by webrootprotection.

• A:Answer I have never seen it included. McAfee is typically the one that is included. But personal opinion here, I think that Webroot is a better product. It's easier to install. You are not bombarded constantly with updates; one purchase of Webroot is good for up to 6 devices. I have never encountered an issue where I had to purchase yet another product in order to resolve a security issue like I have to do with McAfee. It's worth looking into - even if you just got your finances together and recently purchased McAfee. Personal opinion!

Q: Questionhow do I renew my webroot

Asked 1 year ago by JKHeinrichs.

• A:Answer You will receive notice via email in plenty of time. The money will be billed to the account associated with the Webroot package, unless you physically go in and change it and then notify Webroot. They will email you a few days before they charge the amount/or withdraw the amount. Then they will you an email as your receipt.

Q: QuestionDoes webroot include firewall protection?

Asked 3 years ago by Justme.

• A:Answer The SecureAnywhere firewall monitors data traffic traveling out of your computer ports. It looks for untrusted processes that try to connect to the Internet and steal your personal information. It works with the Windows firewall, which monitors data traffic coming into your computer. With both the SecureAnywhere and Windows firewall turned on, your data has complete inbound and outbound protection. Hope this helps!

Asked 5 years ago by kate.

• A:Answer Since the pixel slate is running chrome OS and not android, you will get a limited number of features from webroot. The primary one you'd get is our Web filtering extension for the chrome browser.
