[QUOTE="Burrito, post: 760416, member: 72439"] The "I never got an infection" defense of Webroot is strange to me -- from people who hang out at these types of message boards. Usually, people who hang out here want to use a demonstrably better product. I read an article once where it talked about how in a part of Jamaica, a witch doctor using some crushed dirt and plants... casts a spell on malware entering your computer. Yep, for some there, that is their antimalware. And people swear it works... as they have never gotten an infection. Maybe the Jamaican witch doctor spell and Webroot are equally good. In the meantime, all sorts of legit information sources indicate that Webroot is an inferior and substandard over-hyped product.
