    DO NOT BUY!!! Purchased 12 month subscription received only 6 months! Talked to 11 different reps from bb cs to webroot cs to bb store managers and were told its only a 6 month promo code and the only thing that can be done is to repurchase! We are completely done w bb after this situation and we were loyal bb customers and bb cardholders for 20+ years!!!

      Retail subscriptions from Best Buy activate when scanned at the register, this means that the days begin counting down immediately. This is to prevent illegally reselling retail Software.

      PC's do not blow up because of viruses, it sounds like you had a severe hardware failure.

    I have no way to install this AT ALL. It's free from buying MacBookPro, but I just ended up not using it! It's too hassle to install! No way to install this! They do the remote access to try to install this but they still CANNOT install this. In the end, it's too much and I decided to just throw this away and go back to Avast AntiVirus!

      Webroot is the lightest software to hit the security industry in years, we are technologically light years ahead of our competition regarding journaling and remediation of threats.  There are free programs out there definitely, however, sometimes, you get what you pay for. We are confident that you will see such value in this solution and the security and peace of mind that it provides that you won’t think twice about the cost. Or think of it another way, it costs less than a cup of coffee or tea each day to keep your computer safe and you are still able to use it while surfing online! Webroot

    There should be a warning for this product that it will cause your brand new computer to crash because it will try to shut down processes that Windows is trying to complete. I was very sadddened that this product was of such poor quality, it took HOURS for me to get my computer to reboot to factory settings after the crash this product caused.
