I have been using Webroot as my main AV for several months now. Very happy. Prior to this I used Emsisoft and Zemanna keylogger trial editions in realtime alongside Webroot trial and had no problems either ( understandably some false positives).
Anyway, I now use Webroot only with the odd on demand scan of hitman pro, emsisoft & malwarebytes.
I feel pretty comfortable with my current setup, and generally abide by Littlebits frequently voiced mantra of using common sense while online as ones first defense.... but sometimes things can get through. I don't see myself changing to another AV, but I would like to hear other peoples experience.
 
Excellent. Good to have an endorsement from a pro.
Usage update:The Webroot filtering extension is currently on limited rollout, and while effective is a bit slow on resolving google searches.
 
webroot is good if you have an internet connection.while scanning you should be connected to internet otherwise it will miss threats(from my personal experience).I took two malwares and scan with webroot offline and surprisingly it missed them.
