[QUOTE="509322, post: 775071"] Webroot is promoted heavily in the U.S. by Best Buy\Geek Squad. When a person buys a new PC and they get a free AV, often Best Buy sales rep pushes Webroot. Webroot also tries to run programs with banking institutions where a bank customer will get free Webroot. Symantec is Symantec. It does not automatically include Norton. [B]One has to read the report notes. Statistics are never what they seem. For example, the data collection is essentially representative of English localized systems.[/B] However, Avast and Malwarebytes are perpetually first and second because of the huge number of people using Avast Free and [S]Malwarebytes Free[/S] - both being promoted heavily everywhere. Edit: No Malwarebytes Free is reported; only paid MB is reported. [/QUOTE]
