In Chr.ome I turned on Extensions for Webroot. Web category information for Google, Bing and Yahoo. When I open detail:
Permission to read and change all your data on the websites you visit. Manage your downloads. Should I keep this extension or remove? Kind of scares me when it says can read and change things.
Thanks

Welcome to the Community Forums.
The Webroot Filtering Extension is an integral part of the WSA protection system or Shields that protect your system. You can read more about them here.
The Filtering Extension is responsible in part for what happens when you run an Internet query such as a Google search, SecureAnywhere shields modify the results display with icons that give you safety information about each website returned as a result of the search. The icon displays to the left of each website name in the list of query results. The table in the link provided describes the meaning of each icon you see against the individual search results.
You should keep the extension/not remove it!
In terms of enabling or disabling the extensions please see this KB Article if required.
Hope that helps?
