Did you try backtrack the steps and see if it was CAV or CFW or D+?

you could also post in the comodo forums to see if you can get some help too.

Well no not really, but since it was blocking the steam servers i noe think it could be CFW. ( But please do not quote me on that. ) And Dohh...i should have thought about the Comodo Forums, thanks for reminding me Biozfear. :)

No worries. You might need to do a bug report... which reminds me I need to do one too.
Someone know the last version of the signatures form the 18th of July? forgot to write it down....

Well so far the only one who responded with a post in my thread on the Comodo Forums was Chiron, he has not re visited my thread. No one else seems to have CIS and Steam on their computers it seems, so i decided to stick with Avast Free v7 again. ( Shame though that it hat to go this way, i would have liked to continue using CIS. :( )

Before it is mentioned, i did wait for 5 days to see if my problem would get a happy end...before deciding to stick with Avast Free v7 again.

Do you consider using a firewall? If so, you could use windows 7 firewall with Tinywall or PrivateFirewall or even just windows 7 firewall on its own, since you are also a gamer.

Too bad about your CIS experience.

Beware of avast autosandbox. it sandboxed one of my games patcher out of nowhere. Always pay close attention to it.

Yeah it is to bad, i will continue to watch my thread on the Comodo forums for a while longer just in case. Thanks for the warning about the auto sandbox Biozfear. :)

After a while of testing, i am happy that CIS is finally working normally with steam. I have no idea as to why though, i installed CIS in the same manner as before and it allowed steam to work as it should after that...go figure?

Any way i did remove Sandboxie, not because it wasn't working, but because i think that with what i use i do not really need it. Besides i also have ToolWiz Time Freeze installed. ( And yes i know it is not Sandboxie, but still. :) )

EDIT: Forgot to mention that beside CCleaner i also started using PrivaZer.

Glad CIS issue has been fixed for you. As for me, it is still random...
If I can't fully figure it out I will open a bug report and try to describe the whole incident.

Thank you Umbra Corp and Biozfear. :)

Yeah a bug report might have helped more and faster i guess, then the threads i made on the steam forums and from Comodo.

For the time being i removed Adblock Plus, and i am now trying out the combination of Nimi Cleanser and Webfilter Pro.

Also, does any one know how i can set Nimi Cleanser to allow Yahoo mail to work?

What is EMET?

It is short for "Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit" and you can read more about it here. :)

There is a link to the download page for EMET on that page should you want to try it.
