[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 937618, member: 32260"] It is OK. The renamed PowerShell (updater.exe) is executed and immediately closed. Depending on the Comodo settings, the execution can be allowed, contained in the sandbox, or blocked. The alerts can be suppressed by your settings. If not, then the lack of alert means that Comodo allowed unrestricted execution. Edit. Anyway, this test is not appropriate to test some Comodo settings because the DLL is safe (not malicious). Comodo can be configured to block unsafe DLL even when the executable which loads this DLL is safe. [/QUOTE]
