  "Product did what it was suppose to do."

  by elt123 on January 4, 2009

  Pros: I was infected with Rapid antiVirus, Tried spyhunter it didn't remove plus charged me for Registry medic. I purchased StopZilla scan my system several times and it cleared Rapid antivirus. It continues to protect my system. I would recommend it.

  Cons: A little slow loading after a reboot.

  Summary: I liked the product because it blocks popups and notifies you of harmful sites and potential harmful downloads. It's easy to use. I've had no problems with it deleting files that I need as mentioned in a couple comments. I would highly recommend t... read more

  "Excellent Product"

  by jonathanb565 on January 3, 2009

  Pros: Fast download, fast update, very fast. Ran full scan and it found all problems including several I didn't detect with other software.

  Cons: Slow response when attempting to pause scan.

  Summary: Excellent product. Found all problems where all other software packages failed to even begin to detect the problem. Malicious software problem which was causing my system to crash (blue screen) and reboot several times per day was discovered and comp... read more

  "Fraud in billing and fraud in programming"

  by trondganes on January 3, 2009

  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 there are a lot ... read more

  "Worked very well"

  by ClayTechSupport on January 1, 2009

  Pros: I had a major infection on a computer. Could not run Spybot, Malwarebytes, or Hijack this. Stopzilla ran, and got rid of items so I could run other scans. No one spyware prog. catches all, this is a good one to add to arsenal

  Cons: Costs money to get rid of problems. It only cost me $9.99 AFTER a rebate. But, really, as long as it's not a hassle to get the rebate money back, that's not too bad a deal if it works well.
