Not a fan at all of this program. Yes it comes free with computers but that's the only way I'd let it in my home.

It is typically advisable to completely discard software you don't plan on using, as a product should be reviewed for its' efficacy with a well-rounded point of view. We do apologize for any inconvenience we may have caused you.

Talked into this by Geek Squad after a virus instead of having to pay a ridiculous amount for service. Then they still wanted to charge more for transferring files, etc. I don't know how you really know if a product like this is working. Really unhappy with Best Buy's service as we have been customers for 20 years. It will no longer be my "go to" for technology and appliance purchases.

Debjo,
Please reach out to Geek Squad or Best Buy with this complaint. Webroot offers free support for all of our products but we do not assist with transferring files.

The Geek Squad loaded this when they replaced my hard drive. System ran fine when i got it home. As soon as I set up Win. 10 however i could not reboot it. All types of error messages came up. Finely had to reload Windows. Tried again same thing happened.. I called the Geek Squad and they told me that they never saw this problem before. May be something to do with latest version.

This is bloat ware that is not pre-installed on your computer. In my opinion it's substandard to anti anything you can down load online for free. it's just something to make you feel good about security while you ARE ONLINE BUT HAS LITTLE OR NO CAPACITY TO PREVENT THREATS TO YOUR COMPUTER. IT'S ALL EYE CANDY WITH MINIMAL PROTECTION. There is much better stuff than this for free online.

I was not too happy with this software. It was sort of pushed on me when i had brought my computer into the outlet to have it serviced. I have since uninstalled it and have gone back to my usual anti virus software which is Avast. As a matter of fact the sales rep. that i dealt with was not even familiar with it. Odd, as there are ~ 300,000,000 people word wide that use the Avast anti virus software.

Hello,
It is best to first use a product before reviewing it. Should you try our product and experience any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to GeekSquad or our Support Team Directly.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I am not sure if I like this product. I'm still getting to know it. There is a code you need to use when you set it up and the instructions are incorrect. It took me awhile but I figured it out. I wouldn't recommend it because of that. I am getting used to it though and by the time the one year gratis period is up I will know more about this product. Until then, caveat emptor.

Suesue,
Webroot is an all around security program that offers full protection. Bugs are not malicious and are generally issues on the computer or with a program. Webroot will protect from malware but will not stop popups unless they are malicious.

AntiVirus protection is necessary to use no matter what types of links or sites you visit nowadays. You can be served ads riddled with Malware on sites even like Facebook or Yahoo!
Even companies like Spotify that offer a free music streaming service to users have been guilty of serving their own Customer's Malware in their third-party advertisements. http://www.pcworld.com/article/3128289/security/spotify-ads-slipped-malware-onto-pcs-and-macs.html
