I would recommend this to a friendTakes control of your compuer, and creates problem
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had the Geek Squad remove the software after trying it. The program prevents many of the useful programs like e-mail from working seamlessly.

don't know if it is worth getting for a mac.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't know if this is worth the investment. I don't think it has ever caught anything for the mac yet. Other programs available are just as comparable
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from WebrootTeam
Posted .If you think there was a problem with the installation, one of our technicians can take a look. Although Macs are less vulnerable to attack, the risk of infection and new Mac malware is increasing every day.

Not Effective
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think this antivirus is not as much effective because it takes too much space on the computer and most important it scans so slow.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat product especially when free!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After purchasing a new laptop I received this for free this was beneficial in the way that it saved me from having to find a separate security software
I would recommend this to a friendUseless
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.From the moment it was turned on the product did not work, I took it to the geek squad and they could not figure out so had to return it.

Posted .Webroot uses advanced journaling and remediation technology that the competition does not. In other words, instead of guessing if a new program/file is 'good' or 'bad' like the rest, we journal its actions until we make a legitimate determination and rollback any changes that file made, if it does in fact turn out to be malicious.
Also, SecureAnywhere is cloud based, lightweight, scans in under two minutes, updates automatically, and gives you real-time protection when a virus is found in the wild instead of waiting for a clunky signature update.

It did not stop a lot of pop ups~!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not sure if the clean up and the scan are actually doing anything. It appears that a lot of unknown programs/advertisements keep trying to get in.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was given this software with my purchase. I chose not to install or use it because I prefer a free option and there are plenty out there.

Posted .dca1907,
It is generally good practice to write a review after you have used a product. If you have not used Webroot, than you are unable to write a review about it.
There are no other AVs like us on the market and if you do the research you will see we are doing things very differently than the competition. Not to mention the free, non-outsourced tech support. We would never advise using a free AV solution and wish you the best of luck.
