Safari users might see this image when booting up Safari:


This is a legitimate Webroot extension installation message, and you should go ahead and click Install to allow the extension to complete.

    Hi @,
     
    Are you installing Webroot on a Mac?
     
    The Webroot Webfiltering is part of Webroot SecureAnywhere to protect you from malicious sites. Please look here,

    I have a Mac and the Webshields are installed in Safari, Chrome and FF.
