| 638440 | 2008-02-08 03:49:00 | Anyone one tried the new Comodo Firewall ? Prob old news by now But---- Its got a few more " tricks " up its sleeve esp when installing, as well as a new blocker for when installing programs - or read that as blocker to stop malware installing. I'll confess :lol: I,ve dumped ZA and gone over to Comodo, ever since Nod32 starting detecting a Bug in the latest ZA. |

| 638441 | 2008-02-08 03:54:00 | Ive got it here but havent installed it yet. It looks like its got on demand virus scanning, in it now too Its got a lot of things in it, for a free program. At least adding ports to it (I tried the previous 3.x version) is easier. In 2.4 you had to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to add the bloody ports in lol. I could install it on this, but the other pc the flatmate had it before and got rather pissed off, with clicking on all the popups lol. |

| 638443 | 2008-02-08 04:05:00 | 2.4 was the main prob lol. It used to block the windowsupdate site for me, and adding ports to some programs was a major PITA. Hopefully, anyone who's using Comodo (who wants the later versions) has XP. As it doesnt work with 2k. You'll have to use 2.4 |

| 638444 | 2008-02-08 04:10:00 | So far installed it on Two Customers PC's today - So far no problems apart from I went to install A program ( Spybot) , walked away to get a cuppa and thought it would have finished 5 minutes later - but the firewall was stopping it, with a message asking for instructions to allow installing - OOPS! :o Turned off the AV scanner - thought it may ???? Conflict with Nod32. |

| 638446 | 2008-02-08 07:29:00 | Replaced ZA with it and using it with Vista Premium - so far no problems. | tophook (10328) | ||
| 638447 | 2008-02-08 09:36:00 | 2.4 was Awesome Speedy! You just click Accept for everything. But seriously, it always allowed Windows Updates and everything to go through, no problems at all. |

| 638448 | 2008-02-08 16:33:00 | 2.4 was Awesome Speedy! You just click Accept for everything. But seriously, it always allowed Windows Updates and everything to go through, no problems at all. I did , I could get to the WU site with it. Getting into it after a scan, to see what updates were available, was another matter. It kept on coming up with an error, saying I was using a proxy or something. I wasnt. It was Comodo. If I disabled it, it worked. Until, the guys from Comodo told me what to add to the rules. I've still got what they told me to add in a text file. |

| 638449 | 2008-02-08 23:01:00 | Wainuitech: I have installed COMODO upon your recommendation . See the faith that I have in you?:D It has had no problem with my network - set it up itself, unlike ZA where I had to tell it the range to allow . Great . But what do I do to allow the slave laptop (running Vista) access to the net? Your help, as usual, will be greatly appreciated . :) While SWMBO takes great delight in kicking me off MY chair to use MY pc to access the net, it would lessen the pain if she could use the laptop . Yes dear, yes dear, yes dear . . . . :waughh: |
