Hello clfvirgo69,
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
Would you try a uninstall/reinstall of Webroot? Because one thing is your Firewall should be on. I am a little concerned about this being off. So try this below:
Please follow the steps closely!
Then if you seeing notices about Windows saying your anti virus is off... I am afraid that this is a known issue (we believe caused by recent Windows Updates) and the Webroot Development & Support Teams are working hard to provide a fix for the issue. According to the Support Team you are still protected.
Please see this other thread that provides more information.
