[QUOTE="rashmi, post: 1079550, member: 107361"] Comodo is indeed a strong solution. I found the usability has drastically improved, for unsigned programs too, when I recently tested beta 3. If you know Comodo, you can add signed vendors, trust or ignore programs, and configure settings and other advanced settings to further improve usability and protection. If I remember correctly, in the initial Comodo versions, the default internet security configuration trusted everything on the system installed before Comodo. This was also good for a new set-up or clean system. The internet security configuration was a balanced approach, with the AV and disabled HIPS working passively with modules. Yes, it has bugs, and I have had my share of bugs like programs reappearing in the unrecognized list, a vendor in the vendor list with the unrecognized rating and no details, etc. But I never had infections or issues using Comodo. I didn't experience the infamous HIPS rules disappearing bug. I always chose preset rules like allowed, trust, installer/updater, and such on alerts, which generated and created fewer rules. If I remember correctly, many rules and/or something like HIPS generated an alert after you clicked shutdown, which was the cause for disappearing rules. I experienced this 2-3 times with later versions, but I had stopped using HIPS. What I experienced was that I heard the Comodo notification sound after clicking shutdown with nothing visible on the screen. I found nothing in the logs after restarting the system. [USER=32260]@Andy Ful[/USER] What are some cons of using Comodo, according to you? [/QUOTE]
