Battle comodo firewall or windows 7 firewall

[hmido66]

does the firewall in windows 7 is better than comodo firewall or i should install comod firewall ?

 

[Striker]

win7 firewall for normal user is more than enough. if u want advanced hips and controll over the internet wich programm can connect and wich not, than install comodo+ comodo firewall have cloud analyse for unknown programs.

Windows firewall is more than enough, but comodo is a waste of system resources.

Windows Built-in firewall is enough imo in most cases

You can consider using CFW with maxed setting if you really like it, that will be powerful.
I used CFW maxed without any AV module a little time ago and it was a really strong protection, and personally very light on my system, one of the best config i've ever tried

Give it a chance this way

Comodo Firewall cannot be compared to Windows Firewall. Comodo contains a lot of other features that increase it's proactive protection. So in tests from Matousec, it will score better as it's includes an IDS and BB to catch the unknown.

If you know the differences, you'll know the answer to your question.

I agree that Win 7 Firewall is adequate. I do miss the McAfee Firewall that showed who was pinging me. It was 80% good old Google. Several times it was strange sites. Anyone know how ping works? Are they trying to access my computer?

i vote for window firewall; always experienced issues with comodo and all in all window firewall is enough for daily net use (with some brain of course)

If configured properly, Comodo can offer a wealth of benefits over Windows firewall. You may get alot of auto popups for a bit but they will go away once it figures out your routine.

Depends what you want your firewall to do.

If you want your firewall to stealth ports and block inbound intrusions then Windows firewall is your best bet.

If you want HIPS, autosandboxing and a host of configuration options then Comodo`s firewall is the one to choose.

Both are light on resourses.
