Hye,I WAS a Geek Squad 'Agent' posting this of my own volition, so take from this what you will
Please follow these instructions closely.
Open Webroot SecureAnywhere
Click on ‘Advanced Settings’ from the top right
Select ‘Scan Settings’ from the left side
Unselect the option “Detect Potentially Unwanted Applications”
Click on the Save button (you may have to enter in a CAPTCHA)
Reselect the option to “Detect Potentially Unwanted Applications”
Click on the Save button
Run another scan with Webroot and remove any items that get detected.
Please see THIS LINK
for more information regarding Webroot's stance on these annoying programs.
Have a great day!
Best Regards,

Click on the Open Menu button on the upper right (the three lines). Select Options. Select "Privacy & Security" from the panel on the left. Under "Privacy", check the box next to "Block pop-up windows".
