Microsoft's Security Essentials Fails Latest Antivirus Test


Recommended Posts

I just saw that issue last night on an expired Secureanyware pc.  The webroot folder in c:\programdata was 18GB in size.

I really like Webroot's AV, but I'm going to remove it again until they finally figure out how to stop wasting drive space. Since my previous post it slowly grew in size to about 1.28GB when I checked this morning. Fast forward a couple of hours, I install a Usenet client and WSA gives me a prompt to allow it internet access, after which I proceed to download around 2GB worth of data. There wasn't anything else that prompted WSA after that, yet WRData grew to 4.95GB for hell knows what reason..
