I have tested many different AntiVirus Software over the last 10 years. Some consume the majority of your system resources and clog your system with giving you little or no protection, where others partially clog and partially protect. Then there is the scanning. I have 3TB of files on my system, most AntiVirus software takes over 2 - 5 hours to scan, and I can not work on my computer at the same time. This one takes less than 2.5 minutes for a full scan. I have yet to find a product that works half as good as a Webroot product. I have used Webroot Spysweeper for five years and I insist my clients use it as well on the computer systems I build or fix for them. When Webroot asked me to Beta test this product I was willing because I felt confident in their products. It installs quickly and then quietly works in the background... so quietly that I actually forgot it was there, until one day it popped up informing me that it found something.

I tried the 15 day demo and was impressed at how fast this antivirus scan my computer. I'm also happy that the file size is so small. I was going to buy it from the manufacture but saw that it was $5 less here and I jumped on it.

I have a good amount of experience with computers, and have been using Spy Sweeper with Antivirus for several years. It has been hassle-free which I appreciate. I recently upgraded to SecureAnywhere on my family's five PCs. We are active Internet users. Two are Windows 7, two are XP, and one is Vista. Installation was surprisingly quick and trouble-free. I like the fact that scanning is quick -- my new laptops with Energy Star features are asleep much of the time. I also like the small footprint -- as others have commented, I am not aware that the antivirus program is there.

I read Neil Rubenking's review in PC Magazine with great interest. He seems to be very knowledgeable, and to have a thorough test suite.

In the initial scan with the new product, one of my PCs found a malware infection that the older product had missed.

No antimalware program is perfect at blocking. Webroot has a support feature that I appreciate, and have used twice over... Read more
