Webroot Spy Sweeper

This product was out of date when I received it. The product kept blocking Norton so I removed it from my computer,I rate ithorrible ineffective.

I have used this for years. I've been in PC maint and repair for almost 20 years; going back to the old IBM XTs.Spysweeper and sunbelt software's Counterspy have held the #1 and #2 slots for anti-spyware, in a lot of reviews over the last few years.However, as of today, it seems sort of stupid to sell this individual product in today's online environment.The only reason I can see is if you have an anti-malware product and want this one as a 2nd opinion.Today's online user needs 3 things:- anti-virus-anti-malware-firewallIt seems smarter to sell a complete security suite and let someone only install a single component; if they desire.Why sell single parts and have end users trying to piecemeal products together from different vendors???I currently have 3 PCs.Each has a different product for protection.One has kaspersky, the 2nd has sunbelt software's Vipre anti-virus, anti-spy and the 3rd has webroot's security suite.(I can use one pc to scan another, if a pest slips past one particular vendor's product).In the past 2 months, I've seen Sunbelt's product "Vipre" [replaced their previous Counterspy product] do a better job than webroot.One time webroot ID'd some of my autocad files as "malware" and since my settings were to auto-delete malware; it removed them. (I since changed my settings to quarantine for 2 days, then delete).A second event occurred when a bunch of files (appears to have been false positives) got quarantined. I had to recover them.I think webroot is slipping in performance.
