Thanks for the information , this is my favorite antivirus

 

[Deleted member 2913]

Installed on Win 10 64.
Correctly registered in security center.
No connection prob i.e connected fine.
Seems everything fine for now.
Yes the little lag is there on first opening of stuffs.

And dont know why they removed the option in updates "download automatically program updates"? I use to uncheck the option...now dont know if it will automatically download the program updates or not?

And I think from tray...the GUI should open in 1 click instead of 2.

 

[Deleted member 2913]

Yro,

Whatever software I tried...lag was only on the first time...second time or further opening no lag.

And I tested sandbox options my way i.e programs install, etc...

Ask for untrusted program - is the best to use IMHO...I faced no probs & every programs I installed & run were fine.

Run only safe programs & Always sandbox untrusted programs - I always find annoying & problematic i.e many a times you install a program...it will be found in whitelist & install begins but during the install 1-2, etc... files may be sandboxed or blocked resulting into incomplete or broken or failed install of the program.

So IMHO, users who know what they are doing...sandbox option "Ask for untrusted programs" is kinda a boon & enhances usability for expert users in a great way.

I think "Run only safe programs" should work as anti-executable i.e a program install is blocked & on alert you click "dont block again" & then the install should work with no further blocking whatsoever. This will not lead to broken or failed install & you get anti-executable with whitelist...IMHO simple, easy & better than autosandbox.

Overall I find this version very usable...And suggest "Ask for untrusted programs" sandbox option...And for users who know what they are doing.

CIS/CCAV with autosandbox will never be an average users program.

I kept Valkyrie auto upload option disabled as I am on limited plan. And it worked fine i.e nothing uploaded & affected my bandwidth.

Anyone use CCAV for manual sandbox only?
i.e start with Windows & AV disabled...And use as manual sandbox i.e rightclick programs & run in sandbox.
Is it possible or will not work?

 

[Kalashnikov]

You can not install the same sandbox,but you can turn off the antivirus module.Option from the context menu as much as possible at each file

 

[dJim]

will be nice see this last version of comodo AV in real action Vs lastest virus. malware.. ransomware crypto and so.. btw this last version should introduced into " future " V 9 of comodo internet security ?

 

[Kalashnikov]

Here I found a beautiful test.Zero infections, CCAV prevented everything ,Unfortunately it is this test a sample of modern ransomware ... and maybe it was, and was disposed of ... who knows.As for your question, COMODO reportedly has increasingly go towards the clouds..

I was wondering the same thing to run along avira free?

I was wondering the same thing to run along avira free?

I am trying it and see how it goes

 

[Deleted member 2913]

I am trying it and see how it goes

I wonder if start with windows is required or not for the sandbox to work as manual sandbox?

 

[blueblackwow65]

Had to remove it taking to long on startup with another av, I was wondering same thing about sandbox.

 

[illumination]

I ran a test of this release last night in the VM against a fresh pack of 10 samples. Same result I have gotten with the earlier testes I did on it. The AV detected nothing upon static scanning, but when executed the sandbox sprung to life and nabbed everything. The test system was clean at the end of the tests. While impressed as always with their sandbox, still highly disappointed in their Av module.

 

[Deleted member 2913]

To me...Comodo guys do false talks, contradicting info, etc...
On Valkyrie, there are quite a few confusing posts on Valkyrie integration in CCAV.

The latest info on Valkyrie in CCAV on their forum is...currently CCAV only uploads files to Valkyrie i.e no detection is returned.

Its a disappointment on Comodo part as always...after so much noise & ga ga on Valkyrie integration in CCAV...you get to know that Valkyrie is still passive in CCAV i.e files are uploaded to Valkyrie but results are not returned back.

[Deleted member 2913]

Today I tested CCAV new hotfix release & latest CIS release on Win 10 64 .
Tested for usability i.e whitelist function.

Quite a few users, myself included have mentioned whitelist function in CCAV & CIS doesn't work the same.
But it seems to me it works the same on both.

I tested CCAV & CIS with 20 of my portable programs.
CCAV sandboxed 3 & CIS didn't sandboxed any. But then I remembered something that I always forget i.e CIS default config i.e Internet Security config treats programs already on the system as safe. I changed it so that CIS doesn't treat programs already on the system as safe i.e Set autosandbox from "Internet" to "Any".
Tested with 20 portable programs again. And this time CIS result was the same as CCAV i.e 3 programs were sandboxed.
So it seems whitelist function works same on both.

Those who find CCAV whitelist function doesn't works the same as CIS...do you test CIS with default sandbox "Internet" or edit to "Any" & test?

I think I may give CCAV a try on my family system.
On family system i.e average users system, I think the best sandbox option is "Run only safe programs".
And the best way to use CCAV with minimum hassles...Unknown programs will be blocked...And run/install the programs you know are safe with rightclick i.e rightclick on the program & select "Run as trusted".

But "Run as Trusted" rightclick option doesn't add the program to trusted list. So if you install an unknown program with rightclick run as trusted...will install fine but program opening will be blocked...select dont block again on the alert.

I think "Run as Trusted" rightclick option should add the program to trusted list.

During my own test, CCAV does in fact keep the system clean but some of those ransomware .txt and .jpg files are in some directories. Well as long as system is not infected, damaged, etc it's a win in my book. Currently testing a dual run combo of Norton and CCAV. It's sandbox is more convenient for me than say Sandboxie.

So far my only problem with this combo (with all exclusions set into place just for the heck of it) is CCAV's tray icon doesn't appear on start up unless I open it via shortcut. Still seems to run in RAM with normal actions still functional. On VM with no other AV beside it the tray icon appeared fine.

This means CCAV is allowing processes to create persistent system changes outside the sandbox. It's bad ju-ju...

Yes but for what I'm using it for (not malicious or potentially malicious software) it's plenty good enough. I wouldn't trust system security to a sandbox. I have Shadow Defender and VM for that.
