There isn’t much you can do with STOPzilla Free Antivirus. This free security solution allows you to run on-demand/manual scans with the aim of detecting viruses and malware. If viruses are detected, you can manually remove them. That’s all you can do: manually scan for viruses, manually remove viruses. If you want more functionality, things like real-time protection, scheduled scans, and Auto-Pilot mode, then you need to upgrade to the paid STOPzilla Antivirus.

The system requirements for running this security solution are: 1GHz processor or better, 2GB of RAM or more, 500MB of free disk space, Windows operating system (32 or 64-bit version; any version from XP SP3 up to 8). If you have a modern PC, you don’t have to worry about these system requirements. And you don’t have to worry about installing STOPzilla Free Antivirus either. A setup wizard will help you easily and quickly install STOPzilla Free Antivirus on your PC.

There are 5 buttons in the upper right hand side of this application’s dark-themed interface:
Home – enable real-time protection, speak with a support specialist, see how many threats were removed, and more.
Scan – pick one of several scan types (quick scan, intelligent scan, full scan, custom scan) and view scan results.
Quarantine – view quarantined items, restore said items, or purge them.
Settings – various settings that dictate how STOPzilla Free Antivirus works.
Support – info on how to get support, should you need it.

The functionality STOPzilla Free Antivirus has to offer is limited to running on-demand scans (manually launch a scan to detect viruses and malware) and manually interacting with the software to remove detected threats. To get access to more functionality, you have to upgrade to STOPzilla Antivirus. It features malware execution prevention, real-time continuous protection, Auto-Pilot mode (no manual interacting is required), malware auto quarantine and removal, scheduled scans, and live USA-based support.

With STOPzilla Free Antivirus you can manually run scans and manually remove viruses and malware. To be able to do more than that, you need to upgrade to STOPzilla Antivirus.

Pros

Modern PCs will have no problems meeting this security solution’s system requirements. Thanks to a setup wizard, you will have no problems getting STOPzilla Free Antivirus up and running on a Windows PC. STOPzilla Free Antivirus has a dark-themed interface that is quite easy to navigate. You can perform on-demand scans; you can pick one of several scan types. You can manually remove detected viruses and malware.

Cons

No real-time protection, no scheduled scans, and other limitations that can be removed only by upgrading to STOPzilla Antivirus.
