Webroot runs fine on my laptop, no dogging and no notice of AEI.exe in the system task manager. HOWEVER, it is a DOG on my desktop. It will not allow me to schedule scans and AEI.exe kills all possibility of working when it runs. 100% of my system? This is nuts. There has GOT to be a way to disable this dog and only run scans when I want to. | |||

By not being able to end/remove/cancel this program/"service" from my computer when I have administer controls, I consider this to be a virus. The error message "Access denied" appears. So my access to MY computer's software is denied? Unacceptable. | |||

This software is dangerous. Please don't update to version 7. | |||

I dumped Norton 360 and bought Webroot to get rid of Norton's ccsvchst.exe CPU hog of a file, only to find it replaced with an equally offensive file from Webroot. I wasted my money on this program. Very disappointing that they won't, or can't address this issue. | |||

huge problem. It interferes with online tests I take for virtual college. I'm not a programmer, just a midlevel user but this is terrible. | |||

Uses 100% CPU till it knows I'm looking at it in task manager, then it starts going down, like a roach when you turn on a light! Going back to another Company's program. | |||

Customer brought his computer in for repair that his computer was running slow. This program was completely at fault. When people say it uses 100% CPU they are not kidding. 99-100% use at all times. | |||

I just installed Process Lasso because Webroot Antivirus was killing me at times...especially during updates and it's decisions to scan. I am very pleased to report that Process Lasso rocks; It whacks the priority of Webroot Antivirus down so that my responsiveness is no longer affected by that pig. Cool user interface too. I have 19 years of experience at IBM with PC's...never before have I seen an OS properly handle processor pigs like this little program does. Process Lasso is the ultimate whack-a-mole for Webroot Antivirus process priority. | |||

I don't think it's dangerous, just a pain in the ass. It defeats the purpose of having a computer if, in order to be safe from threats, your machine doesn't run. After reading other comments I just went to open Webroot to see what version I have, it informed me that an error had occurred and closed....not too slick | |||
