WebRoot complains application trying to install itself at startup

I use an application called Reaper (http://www.reaper.fm) often.  It definitely does not try to install itself at startup (it would have managed to do this by now as I have only just started to use WebRoot).
 
I selected allow always (obviously) because I want to use it.
 
Can anyone explain this?
 
If I install WebRoot on the remaining PCs in my house, are my family members going to get this coming up with Office, games, etc.?  
 
My kids are not admins on their PCs; will they still be able to "allow always" when this happens?

Webroot shouldn't be interfering with Reaper. You can Open a Support Ticket and our engineers will ensure that the proper .exe's are whitelisted.
 
As far as allowing the program on non-admin accounts goes, the setting "Allow non-administrative users to modify configuration options" should be on by default. It can be changed through Advanced Settings under Access Control.
