I have Windows 8 and I had my laptop tuned up twice by the Geek Squad and both times a virus was found. Very disappointed in Webroot.

Our Threat Researchers and Advanced Malware Removal Technicians are some of the best in the industry and 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!
