    the reason for the poor rating is for the installation process. could not install using the instructions given. had to call geek squad and spend almost an hour on the phone with them. ultimately had to give them control of my computer for the install.(do not care for that) i've used webroot for years with no problems until this installation.

    It is good for minor issues. I still got a virus on my MacBook and had to get additional cleaning done.
