Question for fellow Webroot users who have Discord!

Hello! I remember seeing and commenting on a post made by a WebRoot user that spoke about Discord being overflagged by the anti-virus software within another subreddit, and the antivirus I'm on about is WebRoot. I myself have WebRoot and the false positive is still in my Quarantine, there had been a few people who have reported the same thing happening to them after updating their discord about a week ago. It's mainly about the Preload, which I have set on for Discord. There were other users who have gotten the same thing a few days ago, with their Discord Start-up being flagged as a false positive as well. After that however, I've kept it in my Quarantine for nearly a week or so due to it, of course being a false positive as stated.

I was wondering for those who DO have WebRoot, what am I to click so that it could get out of my Quarantine considering that it's a false positive? I don't want to risk getting anything onto my computer so I just wanted to see if I should either Delete it or Restore it? I'm not really tech savvy but I just REALLY wanted to make sure before I do anything that could either damage my PC or it's just something that I'm overreacting about.

Should I be worried about what's going on with my Webroot? What's going on with it?

Hey guys, I'm making another post because now I'm confused with what's going on with my Webroot. I have it set up to where it scans EVERY time at 6 PM directly, I opened it and now it says that it's been scanned 18 hours ago, even THOUGH I didn't even scan it this morning whatsoever, I JUST got on the computer. When I had first got this computer, WebRoot came installed with it, so I didn't download it or anything like that.

I haven't even gotten onto it until NOW as I've stated and I even made sure to do a offline scan through my Windows Defender and also looked in my settings as well, specifically on the scheduler and the following settings are shown on the two images that I've uploaded for further proof.

This shows when my WebRoot scanned

This photo shows when I have it set up to where it scans on my preferred time.

So is there something I need to worry about? I haven't downloaded anything suspicious whatsoever ever since I had gotten this laptop, and I know that because I made sure to look through my task manager and even the majority of my computer for the whole nine yards and nothing seems suspicious.

Hello all, I am making this post because just recently I had wanted to put my number into my current account which I had created in 2020. I couldn't do so because I forgot that I even had another account years prior, which I had went ahead and put up to deletion just recently.

I need to know whether my account is in the process of being deleted because whenever I try to login into my old account, it gives me the message of the "Email / Number or Password is invalid". I've also gotten an email about it being set up for deletion within the next 14 days, I even tried to where I wanted to get an SMS message from my number that I'm trying to put onto my new account but I haven't gotten any (which could be a sign of the account that I wanted to be deleted as already deleted, not entirely sure).

When I try putting my number in to my NEW account, it asks me if I'm human and when I say yes, it just puts me in either a long loading loop or gives me the "resource is being rate limited" message as well, so I'm not entirely sure what THAT could possibly mean. So can anyone help me and tell me what I need to do to get this entire situation fixed?

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid post, but I'm rather new at this kind of stuff when it comes to handling my account and what not.

EDIT: I've gotten an email confirmation on my previous account awaiting deletion in 14 days, I've also made sure to delete my number from the account itself, so now I'm just curious on what I need to do since I've been getting the infinite loading loop and the "This resource is being rate limited" message.

Hi, I've been trying to log in to Pinterest with the SAME password which is confirmed to be in use on my account after my Mozilla had an update and of course had forcefully logged me out of EVERYTHING, forcing for me to manually log back in to everything as stated. There has been no reset requests other than these requests being from me.

When I try to MANUALLY log-in instead of using Google, which my account is tied to, it gives me the message that I've exceeded my rate limit.

Even with the new password, it still gives me the stupid "too many attempts" message. So I was just wanting to know if there's anyone else going through this?

Did anyone just recently get logged out of everything randomly? I got logged out of my Gmail, checked it out and nothing suspicious is on there and I checked everything else and I've been logged out of that.

There was a pop-up on my tab when I was on my ROBLOX and then I accidentally clicked away on it. So I was wondering if anyone just randomly got logged out of their stuff through FireFox? Like I said, I've looked through anything that could've been changed and nothing has been changed fortunately.

So I was wondering if I'm okay or what? Someone please answer.
