Hey guys,
I was wondering what the ram/cpu usage is with the free version and has anyone had any issues with it like BSOD's?
I am thinking of trying OA free + EAM

I am using OA premium so maybe OA free will use less resources since it has less features.

You will have BSODs if you have Virtual Box installed

This is Process Hacker, Comodo Killswitch was originally based on it. :D

You Can also View PID and other information you want using Taskmanager just open Taskmanager > View > Select Columns

never installed? if installed once maybe you should check in "non-plug & play drivers" for leftovers..

Privatefirewall seem to better than online with less false positive from what I have been reading. Also, is giving Comodo a run for it money. And your opinions/feedback, please? Just trying to get a better understanding of
different firewalls on the market today.

What you means by false positive in a FW? because in a HIPS everything is suspicious unless whitelisted.

The OA installer checks if VBoxNetFlt.sys is present on your system. If that network driver is present on your system the OA installer will show the message that you need to uninstall VirtualBox bridged network support.

I recommend to create a snapshot or system restore point before removing those files. And run CCleaner registry scan after those files are removed. Just in case...
