[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 1079559, member: 7463"] Andrzej- With all due deference to you and your remarkable work, I have to disagree. Comodo really allows almost total freedom with normal daily operation being unaffected. The only exception to this would be when an application is installed as the application must first be vetted by C to be benign before being sandboxed. This extra step done by Comodo to assure the non-maliciousness of a given file, although seeming to be overkill, has served the user well in the recent past as legitimately signed and counter signed malware (E-file and Magniber are a couple of examples) were stopped by C when allowed by almost all others. On the topic of UAC, as almost all others have other forms of primary protection already in place (Defender if nothing else), UAC doesn't add anything to a Users Defense against the Shadows except annoyance and a false sense of security. m [/QUOTE]
