    "Horrible !!!!"

    January 5, 2012  |   By attilaval

    Pros

    Lightweight for sure.

    Cons

    It succeeded to break my computer, failed to clean-up the malware it detected.
    I wonder what this tool really does...

    Summary

    2 PCs, 2 failures...
    It detected a virus on my computer and tried to clean it but instead broke my system. I had to re-install Windows...
    A friend of mine installed it on one of his computers, it was never able to remove the viruses it detected... Tried a free anti-virus and it worked... 2nd failure for Webroot SecureAnywhere.

    Who cares about the lightest A/V if it is harmful for your computer and fails to remove viruses ?

    Very disappointing.
