Hello pcoplen
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community,
 
Can you tell me who saids you have the Cyber Police virus? Is your Tablet acting strange or locking up?

Hi kencox
 
Welcome to the Community Forums.
 
If you are indeed infected by this crapware then your best be is to Open a Support Ticket as recommended by Sherry in her previous post. Whilst it is apparently possible for users to remove some versions of the cyber police virus (by booting in Safe Mode & then uninstalling the app that is the source of the infection) it very much depends on which variant you have present on your phone...hence the safest move is to get the professionals from the Support Team involved.
 
Regards, Baldrick
