It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

All this discussion about Comodo reminded me a few years back in this forum when we were discussing Umbra Antivirus. The only solution in the market that could go back in time and eliminate the virus while the source code was still being written. It was later upgraded and deleted the virus autor(s) as well

It's protecting you. If you can't get online, you can't be infected. Makes perfect sense. I did experience the same thing in one of the versions of CFW. Don't recall which one. It was a long time ago.Hell yeah! This thread changed my life, it is the most technical review and presentation I ever saw, very tek indeed, deep and full of irrefutable evidences and proofs... I lived in sin, but now "I saw the light"! Say amen!
I downloaded Comodo, but I am struggling with the typical BSOD... nothing to worry about, as the technical thread explains, it's just part of the charm of this "Protector Diva"

The string of reviews on the 2nd page are valid, but only one just barely mentions the firewall. They all focus on the antivirus feature which everyone who owns a computer knows is almost useless. Do the reviewers not understand Comodo's Firewall, or not know how to set it up?

You are being objective. Kudos
And I’ll tell you what it is, it is a thread aimed at starting heated conversation and debate. That’s what it is. It aims at getting the dogs barking.
They probably do. But a firewall nowadays and containment simply don’t cut it anymore.

Exactly you mean these reviews show Comodo doesn`t have great av signatures, phishing and web protection?? Well who doesnt know that?
Comodo(CS settings) is used for it`s HIPS/AutoContainment features which protect 100%.

No need to get upset. Everything that needs to be said has been said. I found the review funny rather than irritating.
As I said up the thread somewhere, I also agree with the reviews on the 2nd page. Comodo antivirus is almost useless. Even Cruelsister says so (See, Trident, I knew you were hoping somebody would mention her). Only one of the reviews, however, even touches on the firewall, and then just barely. I don't use the antivirus, just the firewall and it's solid - so far - and the containment does seem to "cut it" very well.

Maybe you could crawl back into your linux bubble and not vex yourself with windows concerns ?
Simple suggestion but very effective.

If I wanted her mentioned, I would have done it myself by now. Cruelsister does not initiate this parade and does not participate in it. It’s other people doing it.

Awww, we all know you have a crush on her.

And Panda with ForgottenSeer 58943's settingsAll this discussion about Comodo reminded me a few years back in this forum when we were discussing Umbra Antivirus.

Panda has literally no settings. The only valuable setting is turning application control on, but it generates a lot of alerts, leading to fatigue. This is the problem with alerts and user dependent solutions, when the alert is always there, it’s not meaningful anymore.
There also some intrusion prevention settings under firewall and that’s about it.

Kidding aside, I actually have been looking at other solutions, should Comodo Firewall ever fail me. At my age, pushing 79, I figure I've only got 25 or 30 years left, so still have a little time. I think AVG free might be the way. It always rates high, IF you believe the tests.

If you want to use AVG, opt for the Internet Security version. First it is cheap. Second, it will not keep nagging you.

Only if Comodo fails. I don't foresee that happening, but in today's world, you never know.
