Pros: Lightweight, efficient, effective.

No issues with malware/spyware/viri getting through.

Small footprint. Unobtrusive. Used on a gaming machine in this house, no slowdowns/issues in that regard.

Cons: None. One not so tech savvy user in home, so I am grateful Webroot works so well!

Other Thoughts: Works on Macs as well--its small and efficient footrpint makes it very easy to recommend.

Pros: I've used webroot for a couple years now.. I choose it because it consumes negligible resources.

Cons: Not sure if the product works as I'm still waiting for Newegg to give me the product key.

Other Thoughts: This time I chose the digital download and I'm waiting for Newegg to give me the product key so I can install the product I bought yesterday. The key is not written on the invoice, though that would be a convenient place for it. And on the order history page, the product key is masked with asterisks *********. I'm waiting in a queue to chat with a "live" representative. I was #5 in the queue when I started. The robot service estimated 5 minutes and 46 seconds to wait. It has been over 20 minutes. Wasting my time in line simply because newegg doesn't staff their support center adequately to respond to their many mistakes apparently.. As one who has relied on Newegg for almost all my electronics purchases in the past 15 years, I'm disappointed that Newegg seems to have been taken over by greedy pigs who have no regard for their customers. Customer service was where they used to shine. I often paid a slightly higher price to buy from newegg because I knew I could count on them. Now they are just another lame website.

Pros: Light on system resource, user friendly console interface, Cloud based AV definition. Does a good job catching and removing malware and virus.

Cons: None so far.

Pros: -Only uses ~5 MB RAM (Avg. AV between 50-100)
-Scans quickly
-Allows scanning of individual files
-Catches nearly everything
-Destroys things the first time
-Blocks infected websites

Cons: One of the ways Webroot is so fast and efficient is because it keeps a log of unknown files for monitoring. Eventually this log begins to eat up lots and lots of space.

The problem is fixable though, which involves uninstalling Webroot, sending a copy of the latest log to Webroot Support, and then re-installing Webroot after you have deleted the previous log files. You can find the exact steps on their forum.

Other Thoughts: 5 Eggs because it is hands-down the best AV you can get at $6.50 per 3 devices for 1 years.

It's actually the best AV in almost every category, regardless of price. Just google Webroot Anti-virus lab results, and see for yourself. If you're going to purchase Anti-virus (I recommend Avira if you're only looking for free AV), then Webroot is the no-brainer choice. Pair it with Malwarebytes and you can consider yourself well-covered.

Pros: - Fast scans
- Does not slow down your computer, even on older systems
- Cleans infections quickly and easily
- It is always up to date and you never have to worry about it
- You can easily add exceptions or allow programs if you need to
- Excellent customer service if you ever need it
- Has a massive database of malicious programs and is constantly learning to prevent zero day threats

Cons: - None for consumer use

Other Thoughts: I have been using this software for years now after finding other AV/AM software either doesn't find anything or hogs my system resources. Webroot has been a life-saver for me, I highly recommend it!

Pros: don't know

Cons: Attempts to install a Crossover product (14 day trial at that) to allow the non apple pc version to run. The crossover product did not work but simple crashed. Mac support is questionable at best.

Pros: fast install and it doesnt run heavy in the background.

Cons: installed it on two computer found no virus on one cause its my gaming comp. but my other it found 7 and it had to rescan 3 other times to remove one but it worked

Pros: This is fantastic anti virus. It is light weight, supposedly great on detecting nasty stuff (I only had one PUP on first scan, I'm not a moron and dont click on everything), and the price can't be beat. The scan takes less than a minute. Get this AV its fantastic.

Cons: N/A

Pros: -- FAST install
-- FAST scanning
-- highly rated protection

Cons: -- requires email (but not credit card)

Other Thoughts: Webroot has a great reputation for catching malware. On one machine which the "N" brand let malware slip through, Webroot found on initial scan and removed without fuss. I LOVE the install speed. Puts little stress on hardware also. During installation it accepts any valid email address and activates immediately with confirmation. Excellent protection and highly recommended.
