As i can see on Sophos web, the free version dont have the option " delete malware " this mean it cant removed any detecction or is just antimalware protecction + deletion ( exluding virus, troyan etc )

I have contacted their customer support with your question ( mainly whats the difference betweeh home free + paid), i guess it has basic malware protection and it can scan .exe sooo i guess its like any other antivirus

I mainly installed it because of good web filter , comodo firewall will do rest. And im not really person that will run such ransomware samples to get infected

I have only tested that web filter works on firefox and basic eicar tests
