I scanned my computer last night, and the console was green, and fine. Why, 20 minutes ago, did it turn orange with no indication of what it meant? I have been through all of the tabs, the little blurb underneath the "Scan Now" only says a helpful hint of incase I need help.... etc.
WHY IS MY SCREEN ORANGE? thank you. I know I am getting close to renewal but, there is no mention of that on the console. Please help. If I am protected, what is going on? Also, if I renew now, I don't want the heart attack a month and a half from now. I want the transaction complete.
Hi sxd0145
Welcome to the Community Forums.
I have seen this before, and checking Quarantine nothing is listed as having been found or dealt with. In those circumstances (which are rare in my experience) I run a manual scan and usually find that WSA reports back that all is well, i.e., Green.
If concerned by this then Open a Support Ticket and get the Support Team to investigate this for you.
Not sure as to what yo are referring to by the "if I renew now, I don't want the heart attack a month and a half from now." statement. Care to explain precisely what you are referring to and then we can offer an opinion?

I do regular scans too. The screen toggles back and forth with orange and green. I don't know if it's blocking an attack or not. I've had this for two years and have never seen this happen. If I uninstall and reinstall it, would it change it, do you think? Change the password?
I meant, by my comment of payment, last year, I went down to Best Buy, where I bought the disk, and paid for my renewal, a month early. The payment didn't go through until the renewal started. I am used to paying for something and it going through right then, not delayed payment. I don't enjoy calling Best Buy or Webroot in a frantic state, trying to figure out what the charge was that went through. Yes, I am that paranoid.
Thank you for answering me.
