783824 2009-06-20 00:57:00 Some time ago I downloaded and used the free Comodo firewall program. This seemed to work very well, and did as it was supposed. Somehow over a period of time this morphed into something called Comodo Internet Security, which became a bit of a hassle in its operation. I recently uninstalled the whole program which greatly increased the speed with which my computer now responds to commands and opens windows in the browser. Today I thought I would install the stand-alone firewall, but it seems that this is now available only as part of the security suite, which I don't want to revisit, as NOD32 is better. Do I really need another firewall, and is there an alternative to Comodo? Richard (739)
783825 2009-06-20 01:38:00 Well if you think NOD32's firewall is better, use it. You could install the older version of comodo, but its not as secure (as the later version), and its probably more vulnerable than the later version Speedy Gonzales (78)
783826 2009-06-20 01:40:00 You should have the option to install the firewall only, I personally use the full Eset suite as it was free for a year and have had no problems yet others on here say the firewall side of it is not so good. I used to use Comodo but when I rebuilt this machine it would not work with my NIC, all my other machines have Zonealarm for the same reason they all have the same flavour of NIC gary67 (56)
783827 2009-06-20 01:53:00 Comodo does give you the option to install the Firewall only. CliveM (6007)
783828 2009-06-20 05:37:00 Thanks guys. I reloaded Comodo and installed only the firewall. Speed is still good. :thanks Richard (739)
