Stopzilla is a spyware program. See if it's in the Add/Remove Programs section and uninstall it.

I Googled and after looking at several pages, I didn't notice any that were related to an infection with that name. Did you look in Add/Remove programs?

I think what tworails is trying to tell you is that Stopzilla is an anti-spyware program.
If you are running no anti-spyware and anti-virus programs you likely have some other infection. From everything I can find, Stopzilla appears to be legitimate.

Stopzilla is supposed to block all the nasty stuff. Perhaps you are surfing to sites that aggressively try to INSTALL spyware and it's trying to protect you?
