[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 1100946, member: 67091"] I fully agree with your excellent comment. Please just allow me to complement: It is important to clarify that “OK” or “Not OK” also depends on the user's profile. It happens that 99.99% of users do not manage to use "containment" or "blocker" based methods, and worse, there is no need, since the market offers for free excellent modern solutions that (unlike Comodo) identify and automatically block viruses/malware, without depending on the user. That's why your comment is perfect when you said: "[I]The arguably "OK" mechanism is dressed in various issues, delivers low quality experience and there are many others that can do the job better.[/I]" IMHO, broken or not broken is irrelevant. “Containment” is just a fancy name for a technology that has been around for decades, used in analogue ways in many other software (antivirus, browsers, virtual machines etc), so it is not a Comodo invention. In fact, there are many other software on the market, well maintained (upgraded/updated), that offer functions similar to “Containment”. The problem is that Comodo never presents itself as a “Containment”, not even as a “Blocker” software. Irresponsibly and immorally, Comodo always presents itself as “a complete unbeatable cyber security solution”... and as such, it has been confirmed countless times that Comodo is broken! Another point to consider, is that average-Joe-users can't use “Containment” and “Blockers” because they don't know what to containerize, allow or block. Not to forget that most applications and executables do NOT work inside “Containment” (and this is an issue that is almost never addressed among Comodo fanatics). So, I repeat, in many senses Comodo is broken! Furthermore, broken or not broken, the burden of proof is on Comodo. But, considering that Comodo hasn't had a market share for decades, hasn't been testing in the big labs for decades, the few fanatics are an insignificant minority almost extincted, and the videos or positive comments are not from experts and don't follow technical protocols... then, Comodo never proved that “Containment” is not broken. I repeat, such a claim should be verified by independent known experts. Comodo and their fanatics claim that “Comodo is unbeatable”, but they never presented reliable independent proofs. Leading cyber security companies do not rely on anonymous internet users or fanatics to build their reputation. Their software is methodically and systematically evaluated by well-known independent experts, with universal technical protocols, and by the most important labs (by the way, their market share and profit incomes also confirm their reputation). And [USER=99014]@Trident[/USER] your comment is also perfect when you explain that the lack of updates, upgrades, with ±500 dangerous unfixed bugs, and tons of negative reviews on the web (made by known experts that follow technical protocols)... everything points not only to Comodo being an abandonware, but also to confirm that it is broken in many ways, and there is no logical reason to use it, when the market for free offers better alternatives. Comodo's market share is negligible. And the number of fanatics is also almost non-existent.

It is a cognitive limitation of Comodo fanatics, which [USER=99014]@Trident[/USER] you already explained very well in one of your magnificent posts, where fanatics compulsively need to feed back their own false beliefs.
