http://personalfirewall.comodo.com/testyourfirewall.html ______________ Tried it, and i guess i passed ! StevieO
I tried it but when SSM tells me something wants to gain control over explore.exe, I block it. End of test.
I just tried it with Outpost 3.51 and wasnt alerted to anything, the web page opened and the text I had typed in was there....yikes. Sure I could tighten up the settings in Outpost to prevent this, but still scary.
Yes i had to disable Winsonar first to allow the unknown .exe to even try to run, as it automatically blocked it, which is what it's designed to do of course. StevieO
I tried this on my setup. First PG asked about it. I allowed that, then Kerio 4 asked which is where I stopped it.
I pass the test too... well actually the test says it can't run, maybe because i block it from doing what it wants - modifiying explorer.exe
I truly believe that if you fail these leak tests or let the leak test commence then you are stuck with a Trojan(s) in your computer.
Outpost stops it if you tweak the Hidden Process settings. By default it is disabled and so it fails this test.
I don't. AV Scanners should detect most stuff anywho. Alot of trojans use simple stuff which most firewalls will detect.
I use Sunbelt Kerio 4.2.3 free version with the default settings and it didn't pass the test. Can I configure Kerio to pass this test?
Give Comodo Firewall a go, u got nothing to loose and it passes the most leak tests, much more then kerio and its free for the enterprise quality personal firewall Melih Comodo
New leaktest This is a new leaktest from comodo as reported by Firewall leak tester http://www.firewallleaktester.com/leaktest18.htm But I do not like that comodo claims that their software is the only one that pass this leaktest with default settings. Because tiny firewall 6 blocks it with its default settings - ie it runs the leaktest but stops the dll injection. or maybe I have missunderstood something about "default settings"? I mean, 1. I doubleclick the leaktest file "cpil.exe" 2. Tiny pops up an alert letting me choose if I want to run the file. 3. I choose "Run with default security" 4. I get an alert from Tiny telling me that the leaktest wants to inject code to other processes.. 5. I click "deny" then I get alert from Tiny telling me that it has prevented 12 attempts of injecting code. Does comodo mean by "default settings" that it blocks the leaktest without any questions? If I allow step 5 (allow the code injection) the leaktest will open default browser to a page that says this: My bold, that I belive to be an wrong statement. I noticed that the webpage did not show what text I wrote in the leaktest. *edit*thx to the mod for merging my post to this thread, I thought I was fast because I just got the notice for the new leaktest from Leak test page today I know appedefend isnt a real firewall but it stops the leak test easily too..
a lil bit off topic, but is there any improvement in the memory? how much memory does CPF use? I've tried it before & i like th firewall , but i don't like the LaunchPad. thanks for the replys guys.
CLPTray exe ------ 05.32 cmdagent.exe ------ 12.31 cpf.exe ------------ 23.78 TOTAL-------------- 42.41 MB on my system, XP Hone SP2
Maybe, but because Comodo doesn't work in multi-user environment, or with Limited User accounts, so it encourages you to run with administrator privilidges and is therefore a risk all by itself.
well in that case...
