thanks for d news......

 

Looking good

 

yes great fw + hips program....its AV u can dump into the **** can lol....better not install it

 

Well, it's working mutch faster now with this upgrade and the virusdatabase is growing rapitly. All that and with heuristics in development, it will improve in time.

 

Has anyone conducted a meaningful review/test of the Comodo version 3 antivirus application ?
By meaningful, I 'm talking about a reputable lab such as Virus bulletin, Virus.org, etc.

 

I personally installed this on every fam PC of myn, the AV is VERY good at catching the latest malware... Best of all it's free of nature, no cut downs etc and the labs are getting over 20GIG of malware a month. 4,000 signatures a day on average are being created (And yes every day you get those 4,000 signatures) But it will improve once hourly updates start, which is due end of this year. The nice thing is once that happens finally once you submit a sample, it will be added to the database in the hour and you will get a response through email of your submitted submission in the hour... All being worked on in good time.

Anyway soon Heuristics will be added... soon. And the heuristics very rarely produces FP's, and quite good based on tests of other AV's Heuristics.

It all takes time... Watch this space.

 

Jeah Josh, my idea excactly

 

I've installed COMODO Internet Security 3.5.55810.432 via updater, and on the version before it CIS 3.5.54375.427 I did a fresh install. I did not install the "Trash" as I have Avira premium, I don't think I would be doing myself any favors by installing the AV part of CIS.

 

Nope, 2 AV's is never a good idea. So you did well i asume. But you could give Comodo AV a try. Uninstalling Avira offcource before that. Then see how you like Comodo AV.
It's nice and comfortable to have one pakkage

 

dont get me wrong cis is the best thing out there , but its AV need improvment , and that why i advice to skip it...for now only

 

Yes it does need improvement. But with surfing with common sense, you would do fine i think. Along with webmail instead of Outlook or something simulair.

 

Off course the AV needs improvement.

 

that what i was talking about

 

I am using the firewall with D+ and the new version is running smooth. Good work comodo team .

 

I started using comodo Firewall Pro when comodo realesed version 3. CFP's Defence+ gave a real lot of popups and pending files were a problem too (some people had 800 files to go though a day). But that was the first version(and November 2007), now they just keep getting better

 

You have misunderstood. CIS AV protection is *not* an AV program in that sense. It has *no* conflicts with an already installed and onguard AV at all.

 

I really like the CIS. Probably my fav security program. I just hope as they improve it they do not make it too fat.

 

Got it. My favourite Firewall and HIPS.

 

I installed this version. Seems explorer.exe is alowed to run any executable without any interception in this version. The behavior persists even if I put explorer.exe under custom policy mode in Defence Plus rules( Computer Security Policy). There seems no way to apply custom policy to explorer.exe.

Am I true? Can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

 

Having just read this post, I am surprised that forum policy allows this sort of comment.

There was a recent thread about SSUpdater, where it was rightly pointed out that posts of this sort reflected badly on the forum and that site was discredited.

There is no post option to report a post as far as I can see, if there was I would not have posted this here.

 

There is a way to report a bad post, click on the ! mark . But first you should report this post https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showpost.php?p=1351656&postcount=4 As his comes before mine

 

Yes Carver, I feel the same about that one too.

 

I know Matt isn't a lab (and that you want just the antivirus part) , but still Matt's video reviews are incredible. A must see.
