    Well, we're waiting! :)

    Is it a new version?

    Is it the free SafeOnline replacement?

    Or a contest?

    That "something BIG" is really a public announcement of their new community.webroot.com section.

    How is the thread senseless? This was tweeted by the official Webroot account:
    "Hey Tweeps, get ready for something BIG from Webroot on Valentine’s Day. (No, it will not be all of us joining for a group hug.)"

    With that tweet they created anticipation for a nice suprise which was a letdown because it turned out to be an announcement for their community forums which were indeed already up for 4 to 5 weeks. So then their tweet is senseless, the thread is not.

    I don't tweet or use facebook! So it would be nice if the OP would put a link to it! So IMO senseless!

    They have indeed, but it's only now that Webroot have made it official. Originally I understand some users received invitations by email to join the new community. :)

    Hello everyone.

    I am sorry that I forgot to put the link to Webroot's Twitter announcement. I see that some confusion was created in the process.

    I hope some of my other contributions to these forums outweigh the "senselessness" of this one. :(

    @TripleHelix: Private message on the way.
