What does "Last scan duration" mean?

|When the program provides the results of the recent scan it states "Last scan" and then immediately below that it provides "Last scan duration".  |The "Last scan" timecontinues to count total elapsed time, but the "Last scan duration" says "5h 34m".  No way the last scan took 5 hours and 34 minutes to complete.  |This number NEVER CHANGES.  I must be interpreting it wrong.  Can anybody clear this up for me|?

That does sound like that field isn't reporting correctly.  Can you uninstall Webroot and install it fresh, and see if it updates correctly?
