[QUOTE="Pico, post: 1103585, member: 98994"] Thanks for the advise to not use (CIS Firewall in) IPv6 at all. Are you going to advise / inform every single person who is using or wants to start using CIS FIrewall and is connected to an IPv6 native network about this IPv6 problem? Are you going to ask Comodo to put your advise to not use CIS Firewall in IPv6 mode and to disbale IPv6 alltogether on the OS in their CIS User's Manual? You could do so but they will refuse to add it to their CIS manual. See that's the problem, nobody is getting informed and nobody is willing to inform all others about this IPv6 CIS problem. CIS users just use CIS as is with default out-of-the-box settings or with CS settings, which seting doesn't matter IPv6 filtering is disabled in CIS in all cases. Furthermore nowadays OS do prefer/prioritize IPv6 connections above IPv4 connections and MS does advise people [U][B]not to switch off IPv6 in the OS[/B][/U] (by registry hack) as that might cause OS problems or instabilities (those are MS words not mine). IPv6 was invented to overcome the limited and running out IPv4 addresses. IPv6 can't be ignored anymore these days it will replace IPv4 sometime (no not within the next year or two). CIS Firewall should fully support IPv6 which it does not. [/QUOTE]
