I believe webroot immediately eliminated threats on my old lap top.  Now it seems they reside until the scan.

Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
 
Both as it has a Realtime Shield if something trys to execute or clean up infections during a scan! And if an active infection it will remove again the Realtime Shield.
