    CIS realy ownz! i try almost all HIPS around... my favorite is CIS not coz it only free and give so much , also it is user friendly and easy to learn (amoung light usages ...etc)

    comodo team realy give the ppl not only the feel they ownz this filed also they give a WESOME score in all tests i was watching!

    way 2 go! keep the good work , i am sure the AV will be the best sooner or later!! so AVIRE , NOD32 , KASPERSKY watch OUT!! :D

    cheers:thumb:

    I assume that you are reffering to the SSupdaters test?, Melih says the reason they have a nice score for this is because They have no problem getting the new malware, There are alot of people submitting them. It's the old malware that they score low on, But in the same light - most of this old malware is not active anymore.
    Just know that Comodo has a long way to go untill it can compete with Kaspersky\avira etc. There is no doubt that they catch (Overall) more malware than comodo because they have a much larger database.

    I see that there are some hostilities towards SSupdate so let's please not drive towards any future discussions on this as I don't want this thread locked :thumb:

    Kyle, you being a member of Comodo's Malware research group, what's your stand on Melih's strategy in trying to bully Andreas Clementi into surrendering their malware sample set?
    As you write "But in the same light - most of this old malware is not active anymore" it seems the Comodo top dog is willing to go nasty in his approach to obtain old malware samples, active or not...
    Cheers.

    Someone can say to me an HIPS which works con CIS ? I know that it had HIPS functions, but I want an indipendent HIPS. SSM unlikely is not compatible, something else free ?

    Some people claim to run Threatfire w/ Comodo; once again, running two HIPS applications is not a good idea as you've noted w/ SSM.

    Sure, but my idea is to use an indipendent HIPS and to disable the hips features of CIS, naturally. Threatfire: I tried it when it was Cyberhawk, but it was a behaviour monitoring software, not a complete HIPS. Is now changed ?

    Maybe you should just look elsewhere for your firewall as well in that case, will make things a lot easier. I was recommending something might have a reasonable chance of running with CFP/D+ and not getting you instant BSOD right after install.

    Sorry, I must adjust. I've believed that CIS and SSM were not compatible, because CIS said me it during his installing process. But now I tried to complete all the same the CIS install: SSM and CIS run perfectly together.

    Hmm, Well first off this is just my opinion.

    Hard question, I think that Melih doesn't agree with how the testing and antivirus industry is and wants to push for a change, set standards.
    He's pushing Andrea's because he wants to help users, The more 'Active' Samples the better.

    Course we all know that if\when Comodo get their hands on the sample set that they would only use it for good.

    I wouldn't say that Melih is being "Nasty" Would more say that he is being Aggressive, He knows what his goals are and is going to push the industry towards it.

    I hope this answers your question.. Any more, Feel free to ask.

    Does anyone have a solution to the AV definition update problem? The program is working great except I have to manually update the AV definitions. I have posted this over at Comodo and will report back if I hear anything. I have tried the registry change and other changes but it still won't update on its own.

    Running CIS for a little while. I like it and it may make me ditch avira free for more consolidated protection.

    Thanks Kyle,

    Although I still have my thoughts about Melih's approach, I appreciate your answer.
    Cheers.
