Security News Webroot antivirus goes bananas, starts trashing Windows system files

That's why I'm very satisfied with my Dr.Web Security Space suite and SpyShelter Premium anti-keylogger, and do not plan on swapping them anytime soon!

i tested Dr.web beware of its BB blocker its much weaker than the others, but its a good AV specially web blocker, just don't do something dangerous with it.

I have a 3 year license to Dr. Web I don't use and have no use for.

I love the product but the false positives got annoying. But the real problem is, Dr. Web can't handle internet connections over 450Mbps. It totally throttles anything over 450Mbps. Even without the firewall installed it caps out my internet at 450Mbps. This is a huge problem for me because I am on a 1000Mbps connection. Unfortunately their support seems to lack in English so I was never able to work through this with them. I tested this on multiple machines, multiple settings/configurations of Dr. Web and it still throttled so it had to go away and I had to go back to Trend.

their support is really slow, even in responding to submitted files.

Triple Helix has stopped posting at Wilders. The Webroot Kool-Aid thread is about to drop off the first page since 3 years ago.

My guess? Webroot fried that guys computers and he's uninstalled it. LOL This is a great time to be alive..

I wouldn't be surprised if this thread gets locked soon.

But in case it doesn't, guys remember that this thread is about Webroot's update issue. It might be for the best to take other conversations to either your own profile or PM
