I used to have Webroots Sweeper, (paid for it) and it was great, and it was active.

Then, because I am stupid I guess, I listened to Webroot, and upgraded my program (free upgrade) and the bloody PC ground to a halt, with the browsers refusing to move at all. It took me ages to erase everything Webroot, using search and then destined all bits to be erased by Cyberscrub; and my browsers agreed to work again.

I just wonder if anyone else here has/had the same problem, and whether Webroot has solved this issue. I don't dare re-install my Webroot until I hear from someone here.
