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

More of a settings review, nut note that CF works fine on Win 11. Also, although not specified directly in the video, note the blocking of the spawned vbs script in sample 1 as the on by default) Comodo Script Analysis kicked in.
I don't know CF in depth, but I still wonder about one thing, after Comodo firewall is installed, do we need to do anything ourselves such as reset the container or is everything automatic and any attacks and files automatically removed by Comodo itself and deleted?

I thought The Comodo firewall was discontinued. If not where can we download thelatest firewall version only for windows 11?Thks
Surprisingly no! was so happy to learn yesterday through this thread that good old wonderful Comodo is going to get two updates this year along with (hopefully) a UI refresh (not that a UI refresh matters) but still.... :) Amazing news ❤️

Would these type files be executed by a drive by or an email attachment? If all exes and scripts are blocked, how would any of these runs?

Personally I always do a manual reset of Containment from the GUI daily. Although not at all necessary, I consider it a simple Best Practice.

Timely question! There have been a great many different RATs that are being pushed through Email that are NOT in the form of exe's. Just happens that I have a video already prepared on this very point (of course done in stunning 480p and text boxes which is part of my charm).

obviously (I assume) @cruelsister is running cf in vm_guest win11, any special considerations for installing cf in VMware Player / Workstation v16 on win10 guest?

I noticed you didn't check the option "do not show pop up alerts" and set it to deny requests as in previous videos.
That was on the HIPS screen which I showed just to point out that the HIPS was not enabled. If the HIPS module was being used it would have been checked. Apologies for any confusion.

So sorry! I didn't specify I meant in the firewall settings, my bad.
