[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 1097697, member: 67091"] Hi [USER=113650]@Helmut[/USER] With all due respect, you are reversing cause and effect: It's not about people "putting Comodo in a bad light"... it's about irresponsible fanatics pushing Comodo to everybody, without recognizing that: 1. Comodo is an abandonware (at least since 2017); 2. The "new" CIS 2025 is a fraud, it has nothing new, the software has been the same for at least 7 years (no real updates nor real upgrades); 3. The list of old and dangerous bugs is endless (at Comodo's website at least 100 bugs are officially recognized, and more than 300 bugs are unofficially recognized); 4. Comodo's antivirus was, is and will always be garbage. Therefore, Comodo does not detect viruses nor malware; 5. The only thing that (more or less) works in Comodo is the "Containment", therefore, Comodo is only a "blocker"... and the decision to block or not to block depends on the user. Considering that today on the market there are excellent antivirus/malwares, totally free, much more evolved than Comodo, it is irresponsible to recommend Comodo to other users. Also, there is no real reason to use Comodo as a blocker, because similar function can be achieved by hardening Windows. Windows is not "blocked" due to good reasons: Average users can't use blocked devices. For the majority of the users, blocking is a terrible security strategy. However, Windows has plenty of settings, it's incredible customizable, and it's possible to block almost everything at Windows. Claiming that Comodo is free... poop is also free. Claiming that "it works for me - works for everyone"... is the same as saying that if someone likes to eat poop, then everyone should eat poop. Yeah, Comodo worked for you, but you are one case in the world. There are hundreds of users who have denounced Comodo's failure over the past 20 years. Your claim is no more valid than the claim of other users who do not recommend Comodo. And as [USER=99014]@Trident[/USER] perfectly explained, you can find millions of users without antivirus, zero infections in decades... and that's not a reason for recommending everybody to avoid using antivirus. So, you need objectivity, you must understand that what works for you, works for you, period! Also, objectivity means to recognize that old software, not updated/upgraded, full of bugs... should not be used. In the best case, objectivity means that better and more evolved free software are offered out-there, so no rational reason for using Comodo. The final proof is always given by the market, where even for free, for decades Comodo's market share is practically non-existent. And the explanation for this lies in the mediocrity of Comodo's products. Not accepting the truth of the facts is denying reality, and that defines FANATICISM. And I repeat, it is not about "putting Comodo in a bad light", it is about fighting the intolerance and irresponsibility of fanaticism, which is not satisfied with using Comodo, it has a pathological compulsion to put Comodo up everyone's ass.
