Welcome

I love the new Secure Anywhere!! It has already proved itself to me to be better then anything I"ve seen in the past. I also love the easy to access and navigate settings. Some other programs I'd tried were a complete nightmare trying to do anything. Keep up the good work. 😃

Is  anyone else  having trouble installling  winsdows 8.1?

Today's National Cyber Security Awareness Month Tip comes in the form of a sobering survey conducted by Marble Security.   It turns out that those of us born in the millennial generation, who grew up alongside the internet, are ironically more likely to get hacked...or phished...or socially engineered, despite the common belief that we should be the ones wise enough to avoid these attacks. PCWorld has the report.   "Twenty-six percent of respondents aged 25 to 34 said at least one online account has been hacked. But that doesn't account for those ho have been part of major breaches over the years, or those who have had more than one account compromised. When it comes to those aged 35-44, the percentage drops to 24 percent." The reason 'digital natives' face the risk of getting breached is because we're the ones representing today's workforce, the

I just installed WebRoot Secure Anywhere on my PC. It will not let me print my Bank of America online statement, either from the Print menu or from the "print this page" link on the bank's website. IE10 flashes that it had a problem and had to reopen the tab. This happens even when I turn off phishing and identity protection. This is not acceptable. How do I fix it?

Hello from the newbie. I just had my first problem solved here, and it is so good to know, that there is someplace I can go to get answers to my questions. Thanks everybody, I'm sure your be hearing from me again.:D

UK Wikipedia editors have expressed "shock and dismay" at the discovery of hundreds of user accounts set up to make paid-for entries. Paid-for advocacy and the adoption of fake "sockpuppet" identities for promotional purposes are against the free web encyclopaedia's policies. Sue Gardner, executive editor of the Wikimedia Foundation, said "as many as several hundred" accounts were suspect. Editors have blocked or banned more than 250 accounts, she added. "Our goal is to provide neutral, reliable information for our readers, and anything that threatens that is a serious problem," said Ms Gardner. "We are actively examining this situation and exploring our options." Wikipedia considers paid-for advocacy a "black hat" practice, she said, that "violates the core principles that have made Wikipedia so valuable for so many people."

Click 'Security' on the left tan and then click 'Edit' under '2-Step Verification'. This will take you to the '2 Step Verification' settings page.

Just a suggestion, but I am sure I am not the only one who has had curiousity regarding the VIP rewards, and just what they look like.  Would it be possible to post pictures of the various items?  I love the rewards I have received, but I really had no idea what was being sent until it arrived.

Hello,   I just took part of the Webroot community, so I'm pretty new here. I hope i'm on the right place for my problem.   I'm a user of Webroot, ofcourse. I'm a gamer and I use to play Online games. I recently re-installed my windows and all software (inc Webroot and the game(s)). Now, when I launch one of my games I can normally log-in, but after 1 minute GameGuard (the game's security) give's an error. Whenever I turn off Webroot it works. I never had this problem before. I already contacted Webroot itself, in order to ask if there is any possibility for adding the Game's folder to exclusion/exception. They explained me how I can add Files to exclusion/exception, but they told me it's not possible to add whole folders. Since GameGuard doesn't run in standard .exe form, I cant simply add it... The game contains a thousends of files. so it'd be ridiculous adding them 1 by 1 to the exc

Hi peeps! I'd like to know if anyone knows how to allow links in my emails to become live. These are not direct links, but words between the html karets >asdf</a used to substitute for the full link addresses that I cannot open. I don't know if my settings at yahoo or webroot are blocking the live links. I've looked through security options but don't find this particular allow, unless it's in wording I don't connect with livening up the links. I appreciate any information. Thank you. PBWolf

THE UNITED STATES government shutting down filesharing websites might be a blunt tool that harms individuals more than it helps industry. A report from Northeastern University in Boston first noticed by Torrentfreak found that while there was some copyrighted material on the filesharing websites, there were also a lot of legitimate files. The report found that while there is only what looks like a small amount of legitimate material, it all adds up, and that becomes a particularly bad thing when other content is whipped away by the authorities and perhaps lost forever. The study looked at six websites - Filefactory, Easy-share, Filesonic, Wupload, Megaupload and Undeadlink - and found a mix of content. "In our most conservative scenario, around 4.3 percent of the ?les hosted on Megaupload were detected as legitimate," it said. "We estimate that when Megaupload was forced to shut down, more than 10 million legitimate ?les

According to a new patent filed by the internet giant, Google wants its Glass wearers to like brands, products and locations simply by making a heart shape with their hands. A camera on the headmounted device scans and recognises the item being liked and stores its details in a list of favourites, which can then be shared.    http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/10/18/article-2465705-18D1721700000578-175_634x286.jpg A patent filed in the U.S. shows Google's plans to let its Glass users generate a like by creating a heart shape with their hands in front of real-life objects, pictured.

Students have a wide array of devices that they take on and off of campus and connect to unsecure Wi-Fi networks and hotspots.   OpenDNS found that college networks were 300 percent more likely to contain malware than government organizations or business entities due to the student mobility and their engagement in risky online activities.    "It's not that they are a target per se, but they are probably more infected because the students don't have proper protection when they are off the campus."   Protect your devices with Webroot   Full Story
