Welcome.

Webroot is likely to be compatible with other Antivirus software, but I think the problem will be with Avast. Most AV vendors are standalone products and don't like it when other AV programs are installed. While users may add exclusions to each of the products, conflicts can still occur.

May I ask, Why you wish to use 2 antivirus software? Reasons?

Hurracaine i am very happy whith webroot but as I can see it not prevent viruses or malware or something of that junk only reacts when it compromises system on the pc for example why dont detect the eicar test and second i see some videos on webroot comunity but that are on enlglish as you can see my wirting is bad and my listening is worst. I want to learn more about webroot prevention and desinfection capabilities or use another antivirus more proactive as a first layer of defense while i trust webroot

Before you start to combine Webroot with other security products, especially when deciding to use more than one antivirus. I suggest you learn about the product itself.

@Umbra Polaris knows a lot about Webroot, he's posted some guides on how to use it too, and he uses the program himself. Hope he will be able to help you further.

On a side note, don't take the tests to heart, they're testing security products until they basically break.. or let in some malware.

first of all , read this about how Webroot works : http://malwaretips.com/threads/how-wsa-works.11871/

... but as I can see it not prevent viruses or malware or something of that junk only reacts when it compromises system on the pc for example why dont detect the eicar test.

Eicar is not a real threat and it is surely whitelisted by webroot's cloud; note that WSA focuses mostly on active malwares.

For the combo, webroot works fine with almost all others AV , if you use it alongside Avast , avast will do mostly all the job ; WSA will kicks-in only if avast misses a threat.
But honestly Webroot or Avast alone is enough for most common users.

Umbrai like to see how install that at the same time but as i say you by private mensaje i dnt know how to configure exclusions. I will read the threat you say me and i check another threat http://malwaretips.com/threads/how-to-setup-webroot-sa-alongside-another-antivirus.8851/ but I see its whith older versions of wsa and avast i hope you help me to configure by the rigth way and thanks for the quick answer

Nothing to configure inside current WSA, just allows Avast's processes if they are not :

Thank you very much Umbra and Hurracaine (sorry i think you are hurracaine), i am using now avast toolwiz and webroot alongside and no conflicts and no high cpu usage i see a 13 or 2 % in inactivity and now i am watching a movie using intenret and worte on Word and the cpu dont goes upper to 50% normaly stay in 30 and not are exraordinary cpu are a AMD E1 2500 1.4GHZ the cam consumtion was 1GB and the disk usage are 90% but its because i am scaning whith avast. I think that was normal values. I like to see more about exclusions because i see the process simplify more but i think that thing only pass in new versions i feel secure and my machine dont recently that, thank you for all and maybe i will stay whith webroot but while it gives my trust i will use both. Suppous i have to ignore the action center who says i have 2 av solutions rigth? thank you you are a sunshine.
