I notice no signature on my outgoing e-mails. My previous security software provided just such a signature, to outgoing e-mail.
Thank you.

We don't do email scanning as part of our AV protection. Webroot's approach is to catch the malicious software at the time it tries to execute, rather than trying to catch it in transit.

Hi Asklepios
WSA protects both interactively & via scan very well when you are off line because it does not just rely on comparison with signatures, etc. There is so much more to WSA's protection engine then that...indeed the vast majority of the protection is based on behavioural analysis (heuristics) of potential threats together with whitelisting of files, etc. For more information on the heuristic-related components of WSA please see this page of the Online Help Text.
In fact whilst to all intents and purposes the signatures are in the Cloud, that is not strictly true as WSA does hold a database of special signatures, specificaly for this purpose, on the client machine.
So you are well protected as well when off line.
Hope that helps?
