To address llottolll and give background to other members about Triple:
It's important to establish trust when in a support environment. This is a forum primarily run by volunteers with input by Webroot staff, so most users first interaction will be with someone not associated with Webroot. Showing the qualifications of being a (I think founding) VIP member of ASAP, being a recognized VIP, being a recognized expert advisor, and being a Microsoft MVP is important.
Not to kiss butt, but TripleHelix is a Microsoft MVP, which is an amazing qualification granted by Microsoft only by nomination of the Microsoft professional community and decided on by a board of review. We're lucky to have an MVP, especially a Consumer Security MVP, posting here. There are only 76 of them. On the planet.
He's been doing consumer security support on forums across the internet for a decade. That's something I know not because he told me, but because I knew about him before I joined this forum. Frankly, his signature could be a pink pony for all I care.

1) The Signature graphics are provided by Webroot to the members of the Community.
2) At this time, I would suggest that you submit a Trouble Ticket regarding the inability to remove the Web Threat Shield extension for FireFox. As it is an integral part of your protection, and while I am not sure why you would wish to remove it, that is of course your decision to make and your computer.
