Welcome to the community stevewiggin!
 
Are you asking how to block a website on your Android phone or on a PC / MAc?
 
For information on Webroot for Android, please take a look at the online guide.
 
If you are refering to Pc, please look here and here
 
Here ius a link to the https://community.webroot.com/t5/forums/editpage/board-id/android/message-id/Webroot SecureAnywhere Help and Product Guides for PC, MAC, as well as mobile devices.
 
If you want to have a website added to Webroots  blocked sites, please submit a support ticket with the website url and the reason you feel the site should be blocked or Blacklisted.
 
Hope that helps!

The think is I don't think it's a malicious website - it just doesn't let you back out of it which I can't stand. So to be more precise in my question, I'm looking for a way to create my own personal list of sites to block on my phone like I used to he able do on my PC.

Thanks all!

That's not possible with WSA as all the info comes from BrightCloud's database. Can you PM me the link your having issues with? https://community.webroot.com/t5/notes/privatenotespage/tab/compose
 
Thanks,

You can only create your own list of sites that you would still like to visit by tapping "Never block this site" on the red/yellow alert. After this, the site will never be prompted or blocked for you. this way you can create your own list of sites that you would like to go to regardless but you cannot create your own list to block.
 
I would however, trust Webroot warning as they have best reputation calculations of sites.
