    Yea, I saw that heuristics detections. It signs some leaktests as suspicious for e.g. grc leaktest, too leaky...

    Could someone post some more screenshots.

    Is it really noisy in terms of popups?

    Yay it is here!

    So far so good. I think I would have to drop my SSM though, because it seems the Defense+ module is pretty powerful in its own right. No need to spend RAM on SSM. All together @ +/-13MB. Also, the heuristic algorithm for a HIPS seems like a good idea.

    Would like a little feed back from users, so post if you guys have a chance. For me, I cranked everything on maximum protection and execute everything on the computer, took screenshots of everything for later analysis. A trojan that was known to be able to sneak past my previous FW ( Mcafee Corp. 8.5) was not able to get out. o_O

    Hi,

    Tried an earlier version, no luck. Out of curiosity, gave v.3 a run, much to my surprises, it does rock. smooth sailing so far.

    If a freeware can be prepared this way with highest standard, who else is going to give a glance at those paid wares. Lately, other quality firewall such as OA, ZAAS, and Webroot all have made their products free. Could this spell out the rocky road ahead for firewall paid wares ? Comodo I :thumb:

    Nice job done.

    Stick KAV on first. Its the only way unless you want to fiddle around with registry entries.

    Uninstall KAV
    Install Comodo
    Reinstall KAV

    Rebooting in between steps obviously. :)

    I uninstalled OA and installed Comodo. During installation I picked the option for basic firewall but Defense+ was not disabled as I expected. It was just set to Clean PC mode.

    Comodo v3 seems fairly light and nice so far. I dont like the custom theme/gui though; I wish it just supported Windows visual styles.

    I will test with p2p later.

    It is off. Open up the interface and look under Proactive Defense. It should read "The Defence+ security level is set to Inactive"

    Also go to the defence+ tab, then advanced, then click defence+ settings. See pic. It only lists it as being in clean pc mode when you right click the tray icon. It is actually disabled.

    D'oh! I didnt see that. Thanks coolio.

    They should disable the slider when Defense+ is disabled.

    There are some problems mostly with avast such as slowdown/slow booup or lockups. Not sure if this is comodo or avast at fault. I believe comodo and avast work at the same time to scan/add files which causes them to conflict or you could picture it as two guys trying to pick 1 pencil off the floor and keep knocking heads until they pick it up :D. Only Vista users seem to be effected though.
