Most (all) of us you see here right now are just volunteers who give up their free time willingly to help, educate or inform other members and as such we do not have a huge amount of time to spare as we do have lives ourselves.

Thanks, but as a Webroot customer, I wanted to know whether Webroot could catch ransomware.
Your link just searches for nozelesn, which is not the issue or question.
Message received, I'll drop it and consider the question unresolved. Thanks
