Thread: webroot are aggressive

  1. #1

    Angry

    I have instaled webroot spy sweeper. The program is fine and there are no problems except that a part of the software "WRSSSDK.EXE" starts automaticly, even though i unchected the"load at windows starup" box. There seems no way to stop this file in starting up. i tried msconfig, but its not there. i tried windows services and i cant find there.
    does anyone know how to disable the file. i know that spy sweeper needs the file, but i want to be able to stop a file from loading if i want to. I think it's a shame that some software firms are so pushy and aggressive.

    Are you sure?
    I found a "Webroot Spy Sweeper Engine" in services.msc that seems to start WRSSSDK.EXE.


    Haven't restarted windows yet, but it looks like the one.
