Version: STOPzilla 5.0
"Fraud in billing and fraud in programming"
Pros: keep away from this company as well as from their products
Cons: StopZilla was offered for 9.95 dollarswhen downnloading from their home page. Nonetheless they charged my account for 39.95 dollars. In other words with none of the rebates or offers which they have on their home page. That is fraud.
Summary: You should not buy anything from a company which is cheating their customers ( there are others having the same experienc,- see the other ratings ).
When coming to their product, they are also cheating, telling you after a scan, that the... read more >> -

Version: STOPzilla 5.0
Pros: If you have an older computer and like it to run slow, this is one program that will help it to do so. Booting after installing took an additional 1-2 min. longer than normal.
Cons: 7 false positives in less than 10 min. of allowing it to scan. The fact that I had to reboot my computer on the install (shouldn't be necessary if the installer does it's job), and the fact that I will have to reboot my computer again to uninstall.
Summary: Before installing on my computer, I had run a clean scan with 2 anti-spyware programs. Stopzilla reported that my computer was infected with Contravirus, which according to wikipedia, is a rouge spyware program that reports false positives and want... read more >>

Version: STOPzilla 5.0
Pros: None whatsoever, unless you don't like your computer.
Cons: False positives, pays into adware advertising itself, bad detection rate, crashes computers with imprecise removals, one step away from being rogue antivirus/malware.

Version: STOPzilla 5.0
"False Positive for IRA Shoul Trojan!"
Pros: None, in fact read the Cons!
Cons: I scanned my system with two anti-spyware programs before using this one. I cannot believe that they both missed IRA Shoul Trojan! I can only believe that the program put a false positive into my Registry. The files did not exist!
Summary: No Rant. Just be sure you can your system with something else FIRST then scan with the new Stopizilla. See if suddendly find yourself with "serious infection". It's certainly not because the program is superior to others!
