[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 1038820, member: 67091"] I understand your case. IMHO: 1. If your Windows Firewall stopped for unknown causes... CAUTION!, it might be a virus, malware or similar. So, "covering that hole" with another firewall, it's not really a solution. I suggest you first to use 2 or 3 independent virus scanners (don't install software, just use the virus scanner freeware software). Be sure that your device is clean. 2. Then, and only then, try to fix the Windows Firewall (sfc /scannow, DISM, Windows Refresh, whatever, you have lot of tools that can repair your Windows Firewall). 3. In the meanwhile, if you want some firewall protection, you have lot of great updated/upgraded firewall freeware. I recommend you only to use upgraded/updated software. 4. If you love Comodo, no problem, recently they promised a new updated software (that might be launched in the next months). So, be patient, wait a little, and in few months install the updated Comodo Firewall. [/QUOTE]
