Ran System Analyzer and got a message that Chrome has an active process leak

I immediately closed Chrome and ran a scan.  Webroot did not detect any viruses.  Should I be concerned?  Can I still use Chrome?  Thanks!

System Analyzer is just a baseline tool mine always says Firefox.exe has a leak so no worries there as we can't do anything about it I don't know why Browsers are always using so much Memory as every new Tab it uses more Memory. :@
 
Thanks,

PHEW!  I got concerned when I saw a friend post on Facebook and he had to reinstall Chrome because of some virus and I was thinking his situation and mine might be the same.  Thank you!

No worries and your very welcome! Just in case WSA misses and infection see this short video: https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroot-Education/What-Happens-if-Webroot-quot-Misses-quot-a-Virus/ta-p/10202 and with the WIN Cloud WSA is very strong! http://www.brightcloud.com/platform/webroot-intelligence-network.php
