    I didn’t end up keeping this as I decided I don’t need Geek Squad help for my Apple products. They have their own free 24/7 endless support if you don’t mind spending time on the phone. Besides, Apple computers have Malwarebytes as their best security app.

      If I may start by mentioning our WIN Cloud http://www.brightcloud.com/platform/webroot-intelligence-network.php as all the work is done on there and not your PC also WSA only uses 3 to 6MB of RAM and up to 6 MB's on the Hard Drive for the Client and this is the future, it's here now! How can the other conventional AV's keep up with almost 500,000 new Malware everyday and over 142 million Malware in 2014 alone? Furthermore, Webroot has free Support as long as you have a subscription. Where as most other AV's don't have this! Webroot

    I mean, really? You can't be serious. Why would anyone buy this unnecessary program when Windows Defender does everything you need, without the problem of mucking up other applications that are erroneously identified as viruses. Garbage.

      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
