    Been reading quite a bit about Comodo Internet Security lately so I decided to give it a spin. Quite impressed so far; I'm surprised at how light it is for a suite. It certainly seems to have all the bases covered. (I've also disabled AppLocker for the time being to take advantage of 'Run in COMODO Sandbox'.)

    Luckily, I'm experiencing none of the problems I'd read about concerning running CIS alongside MBAM PRO.

    I'm running it on a laptop thanks to GOTD and so far it seems light. I can't tell any slowdown even with the other security programs.

    Same here, it runs light with other security apps. Except i have same problem with 2 comps using win 7 x64 and win vista x32, mamutu takes 3-5mins to start when loggin in to windows :thumbd:

    Ive submitted asked debug logs, but devs havent responded to the fella on cutomer support, has been 16 days and no info from devs regarding this issue.

    I agree. It's my favorite security software right now.

    However, I would definitely say it has room for improvement. Especially in the Defense+ area.

    That's right, or Inc. etc...

    Great :cool: You are most welcome!
    Yeah that's too bad, since it had this R/W monitoring tool wich I thought would have been great for you. But hopefully the developer will improve Hands OFF!
    Sorry, but if I stumbleupon anything that I think you will like I let you know of course:thumb:
