 Every time we put out a new TBB, it seems like there are a pile of Webroot
 users who show up with cryptic complaints like "Couldn't load XPCOM."

 Skruffy is pretty sure that showing our TBB releases to Virustotal
 (#11263) isn't going to influence Webroot in any way.

 We should find a contact at Webroot and encourage them to integrate "check
 TBB releases" into whatever internal process they have.

 (This would be a great task for a volunteer.)
