I was infected by Itibiti Inc. I blocked KNCTR before I updated webroot and applied new key. I blocked Itibit Inc iby windows firewall and it came up that perhaps I should enable it saying another program already blocked it. (I am assuming that is webroot) Ititbiti Inc's KNTCTR seems to still be causing problems, So do I enable it again in windows firewall and then run a scan again and Webroot will take care of it???
Please Help this is causing so many pop ups, its still obviously in the registry somewhere.

It`s PUA(Potentially Unwanted Application)
WSA does detect and remove many PUA's, and more are being added, but WSA does not detect all of them. A simple browser add-on with PUA behaviour that is easy to identify and easy to remove is not likely to be detected and removed by WSA. Those that are intentionally difficult to locate and remove are. Please see THIS LINK for more information regarding Webroot's stance on these annoying programs.
For those that are not detected by WSA, please see this KB Article. It has some easy to follow directions on locating and removing PUA's. You may also want to submit a Support Ticket, especially if you cannot remove it easily from the directions in the KB Article.
For those that ARE detected by WSA, but cannot be removed automatically, you can submit a Support Ticket. Webroot Support will help you get these annoying 'crapware' off your computer at no extra charge, and the additional examples may help to better automatic removal of that particular PUA for all users in the future.

For PUA's that had previously been scanned and determined to be OK, but have since been added to detection/removal, you may want to complete the following steps:
