I wish I had taken a screenshot of the notification, because I can’t seem to make webroot give me the same level of info. The best I’ve got is the removal log:

Hey y’all,

This is a false positive and can happen in security software from time to time whenever our software is updated but the security software hasn’t updated their database. You can whitelist the Blizzard app to avoid this error.
