I've had spysweeper that expired a couple years ago but I'm afraid to get rid of the program because I never emptied the quarantine and now the program doesn't even open anymore. Anyway, I'm afraid to uninstall webroot because the quarantine has a few viruses and I don't want them released.

Uninstalling Spysweeper, or any version of Webroot Antivirus or Webroot SecureAnywhere, will not release quarantined items back into the environment. Those items will be deleted along with Webroot if you choose to uninstall.
