Hello ?,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,

Did Webroot quarantine this threat after the scan and did Webroot rescan your system to make sure you are clean? Here is information from the PC User Guide: Webroot Scanning & Quarantine 
 
If you still threatened and want to make sure Webroot took care of this threat then you can Submit a Support Ticket free of charge with an active Webroot subscription.
