I tried Comodo and it had alert popups all the time. Sometimes the alerts popups would freeze on my screen and it was annoying. Anyone have that problem? If so, what's the fix? I need something other than the buggy OP4.
Mine used to freeze the screens all the time... I uninstalled and reinstalled and then it worked... And lots of popups is what you should expect from ANY good firewall, until the rules are created for what you allow and disallow from running.
I guess your comodo FW still in learning mode, that will cause lot of popup. Once it learn what you want, by rules you set, it will get less popup. Until you got new installation or surf new website... This database FW is consider very easy to use, as the popup show you quite a detail on what is happening. Pretty smart FW, i would say.
Here's the thing. It seems like there was 5 different popups for Seamonkey. Do I need to allow Seamonkey every website I go to? It takes too much time for me to click OK and remember all the time and than the popup will freeze on my screen for about a minute or two.
Is your configuration setting set to custom? When you installed it, was it set to learning? Did you have it set your computers apps to allow? I installed it a few weeks ago and its been a ***** cat. Only when I access something new or changed will I get a pop up.
Like I said if the popup freezes a nice uninstall/reinstall worked PERFECT for me. If you want less popups for Seamonkey go to Comodo , double click each Seamonkey thing, one @ a time.. that are in the application monitor and click allow all activities for this program and check the two things saying allow invisible connection attempts and skip advanced security checks.
If you mean how long a pop up stays on the screen, you can set how long. The default on mine is 120 seconds. I set it for 130. I'm a slow reader.
