If sys admin tools can't control it and it takes over the system you can't use it, what better Definition of a virus do you need? Please fix this

Can't get rid of it, doesn't go away after uninstall, and doesn't do anything except take up loads of CPU Usage. Is it me, or does this sound a bit like a virus? Now, we all know it's not, but Webroot REALLY needs to check this ridiculously annoying process out.

THREATrating from user Commsys for file %PROGRAMFILES%\Webroot\Security\Current\plugins\antimalware\AEI.exe (Variant: 115339)
This file may be from webroot but it is a pest and CPU hog. It runs everytime time machine is waked or started and causes everything else to lock up. Webroot's biggest boo-boo yet. Time to dump webroot until they get back to basics.
