Webshield does not scan files, it scans http streams.

No, it can detect infection before it gets on your system and simply aborting the connection (the only option given) stops it in its tracks.

This gives further protection in depth, once on your system. Yes, standard shield may well detect the infection, but it may well be difficult to deal with. Prevention is always better than cure.
