More genreally, is Webroot compatible with other antivirus programs operating on the same computer?  Specificaly, I have AVG 2015 also installed.  Is there a disadvantage to this?
 
Thanks,

Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community Forums!
The choice is yours. Webroot SecureAnywhere can either replace or work alongside your
existing antivirus software.
Webroot SecureAnywhere is fully compatible with other mainstream antivirus products and
will work alongside any existing antivirus software to detect and remove any threats it
misses, and to protect your financial and personal information.
You will not be asked to uninstall your existing antivirus when installing Webroot
SecureAnywhere.
 
 
This is a very informative video of how SecureAnywhere's technology works that will most likely answer any remaining questions.

Thanks Petrovic.
 
I will take your advice and remove AVG.
