[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 592614, member: 7463"] Telos- the issue you were having with the extension was due to how it was specifically coded for Chrome (the extensions for IE and Mozilla products are different and work fine). For whatever reason, the developer made it so that a script interpreter was used and this was why it was blocked and the bat file was generated. This is a way that CF10 deals with fileless malware (scriptors). A fileless script, when detected and sandboxed will be converted into the bat file which is stored in what amounts to a temp directory within the Comodo directory in program data. As was explained by Yash this action can be disabled by unchecking the "Do Heuristics commandline analysis" box in the HIPS settings. And it's fine to do this as this sort of malware will be stopped by the sandbox at the Restricted level anyway. So it's not an issue nor a bug- in spite of what some people want you to believe (sigh...). ps- the default max size of the bat files that can be stored in that directory is 100kb. [/QUOTE]
