I hate Webroot. How do I get rid of It???

A kindred spirit, Welcome to the club. I ditched this program myself and picked up one which actually works in stopping viruses, trojans and or worms BEFORE they make their way onto my machine. Best of all is the fact that I don't get stupid badges for creating a help wanted post or any post for that matter, as I have yet to require any help with my new program. I did however, post a hello in their forum and happily did not receive a stupid badge for doing so.

Hello  and Welcome to the Webroot Community Forums!
