1) If Webroot quarantines a file, has it really found a threat in the file or is this just an automatic response for certain types of files, like exe's?
2) I am somewhat a new user of Webroot, so is this the way that Webroot handles files that it quarantines, that is, it just removes it from the folder and really doesn't tell what it was doing?
3) I did get error messages when trying to move the exe file into a new folder. It said, I was not authorized to access the target folder rather than tell me the file might be a threat to my system. Is this really Webroot's behavior? It would seem to me that it would be better to notify the user that there was a perceived threat problem with the file rather than use a more obtuse error message.
Just checking out how this new software is working to protect me from threats.
Thanks,
John Kruse
