    Hello celmen,
     
    Welcome to the Community Forum,
     
    Webroot will let you know if you have a threat or a virus.
     
    What other protection are you using?
     
    What hasn't been detected may I ask?
     
     
    Kind Regards,

    You must not have read my post. The other software that I used to use (Vipre) found threats all the time. Were they ficticious? I don't know.

    Without knowing exactly what was being detected by Vipre it is impossible to say. If you believe you are infected you can Submit A Support Ticket and we can look over your keycode/logs for any signs of current infections.
     
    Thanks,

    Vipre Internet Security 2014 pales next to the competition. The level of protection it offers is just adequate, and its interface lacks polish.
    Vipre has many false positives!
    ..........and make yourself a Great Day! Cheers, Lyle

    Traditional antivirus software doesn’t catch many threats.:D

    Not if zero threats were detected on its first run...I've yet to find a threat (not that I would like one) but all the other software out there finds loads of stuff. Maybe they're not telling the truth, who knows?
