My solution was to just buy a Mac and not deal with the PC security problems.

Viruses are always written for a specific platform. A virus written for Windows can only run on a Windows machine. Now consider that the aim of a computer virus is to spread to as many other machines as possible, much like the common cold spreads through the population when we hit winter. Attackers are obviously going to most often target the platform that the majority of people use in order to get the best return from their attack. And that platform happens to be Windows. Mac systems do still have vulnerabilities; however, they are not exploited as often as Windows is. That being said, there are plenty of threats designed for the MacOS, and that's where Webroot will be valuable to you as a Mac user.

Webroot was built to run seamlessly alongside any other security program. We aren't scared that there will be a conflict, you shouldn't be either. :)

The key code peeled off part of the letters/numbers, could not get it installed. Finally installed Norton.

I was given this web security on a CD when I bought a laptop (unknowingly) with no disc drive. Useless.

Hi Basshead,
Webroot SecureAnywhere is based in the cloud, so the CD, while being a useful way to install the product, is not totally necessary. The program can be downloaded to any computer with an internet connection. Here are the links to the installers:

Hi Jessi,
Webroot SecureAnywhere is compatible with Android devices with the following specs:
Android operating system version 2.1 or higher Android-compatible device with 3 MB of free storage space 3G/4G data connection required for some features
Since iOS devices (iPad, etc) are very resilient against viruses, the WSA software is not actually needed - so its not compatible. However, the Webroot SecureBrowser app and the Webroot Backup&Sync app (for Complete customers) are compatible with Apple devices, as they are on Android devices.

Hi,
Apple devices are well-known to be very difficult to compromise, but it is not impossible to do so. Its less likely to happen due to there being less malware out there targeting them, but it never hurts to keep safe.

Forced to take this with computer purchase. Free content on the Internet is vastly superior.
