Comodo Internet Security 6 vs 55 undetected samples
(default settings)

Great test!! Hmmm ..Avast was doing a lot better in your previous tests. I expected CIS to perform about the same.

They are both different, their sandbox are not the same at all ... In Comodo the behavior analysis of the files is done in the cloud (CAMAS) while avast! uses its Dyna: rules to detect malware inside autosandbox so it does analyse the file in the user's PC. And that's not the only difference between these 2 ..

Thanks for the test Spywar. Comodo didn't do well at all.

thanks for the share

Comodo Internet Security 6 vs 16 undetected samples

(Autosandbox set to Restricted)

Comodo is not very good at all as many users say or Avast is a superb product. Or something goes wrong with the samples, a fact that does not make any sense according to you and others.

In the comodo forums, some of the moderators say that comodo does not work well in virtual Box for some reason.

Is it explained further? Could you tell us more or post the related link here?

Give us a link please, but still it seems that there is a bug with Restricted mode on Windows XP.

It's called deflection.

this problem was known since CIS v5, i don't know if they corrected it.

seems nothing changed yet ^^

it is why when testing malwares vs an antivirus, a real system is preferred.

I know one thing: I sure see IKARUS finding a lot of leftovers when HitMan Pro runs after a lot of these video reviews. IKARUS must have pretty nice stuff. Emsisoft engine is doing well too.

 

[Deleted member 178]

Ikarus is quite strong but has lot of FPs (reason why Emsi shifted to BD engine)

That's what I was doing with avast!
But your statement is right, a real PC is the best way to test an AV.

That is disturbing when considering most of what we see tested is on VM's. Seriously.
I have Comodo tweaked a bit on one of my PC's. I surely hope this last test was not an accurate portrayal.

How is it deflection? :huh:

Is it really deflection to state that you shouldn't be testing CIS on VirtualBox because VB doesn't allow the software to do all of the things it needs to do to keep your system safe?

If you want to test CIS using a VM, use VMWare.

this problem was known since CIS v5, i don't know if they corrected it.

And before that... It's not something that Comodo can fix. It's a VB problem.

I would be really glad to test CIS just like I have done with avast! on my real PC but right now it's just not even possible...
