HI,,
New to webroot. My computer is new too. I have all sorts of protection pop ups from mcafee? and windowe firewall. Webroot seems to the same thing and I just want to be sure I don't need all three running.. Also I am not an IT person, so don't laugh at this kindergarden question.
LIsa
Do I need Windows Firewall and McaFee Protection if I already have webroot running? Seems redundant

Hello ? and welcome to the community,
To answer your questions, we recommend that you keep Windows Firewall on as we are just an addition to it. In regards to McAfee, you can uninstall that at your own descresion as it is not needed for our software. Please be aware that we will not conflict with that software as we are fully compatible with all vendors.
Hope this solves your questions and welcome again to the Webroot Family.
