Mac user,
I get a scan failed message every time- it didnt used to do that?
I'm not expired.
Cant find my webroot 'version' on the website...
I have looked everywhere, in my account, and all the other options, etc...
webroot webiste is not helpful at all- I cannot find anything helpful at all.
I just wastes my time going in circles on this website - getting no where.
