RE: biozfear configuration
You can add a DNS like Norton DNS or Comodo DNS. Also for disk defrag i noticed you paid for Perfect Disk there are free alternatives like Auslogics Disk Defrag, Smart Defrag, and Defraggler. Even adding Orbit Downloader and the other fp's you talk about comodo having problems with, have you tried to exclude them from detection? for configuring emet you can find information on how to do it here Guide. I think you have a good setup

RE: biozfear configuration
Yeah I paid for perfect disk since I had some bad experience with Asulogics (back in my old system).
The comodo issue in orbit downloader was just the variable for the scan after downloading. Somehow the %1 doesn't seem to work and I still can't figure it out.
I use Comodo DNS via dns jumper only, despite being active all the time. Is Norton DNS reliable? I used to use the clear cloud one (or was it a different name?).
I did seem to have bought some applications where the free alternatives or free versions are ok, so I'll keep that in mind for future.
As for EMET, thanks for the guide, but is it really needed for my system and what I do?
Also have a question about the following:
A few friends at work that asked me to switch from CIS to Kaspersky 2012 or VIPRE (if running VIPRE, instead of using the firewall, use comodo firewall or online armor).
Now both Kaspersky and VIPRE are paid versions which I don't have a problem in buying it if they are reliable. CIS doesn't use much resources at all. I was previously using ESET 4 until my subscription ran out, did the trial for version 5 and resources were quite high, so I switched to Comodo. My other laptop which is a low end laptop is used for websurfing and facebook by my family members and that one is running Avast free version with the free versions of the apps I have on my Dell (apart from a defrag which I'll perhaps get the defraggler).
Thanks for the reply

RE: biozfear configuration
Oh, are you the user who was asking about this on the Comodo forum?
Did you ever contact Orbit to see if they use a different string for the argument?
I know Free Download Manager uses %file% instead of %1 to pass the filename to the command line scanner. Orbit may also use something other than the more common %1.
That said, with an on-access scanner like CAV, it really isn't important that a file is scanned just after download. CAV will act when the file is accessed.

RE: biozfear configuration
Hi there Heffed, yeah it's me who posted on the comodo forum.
Well I went through all their forums without luck and then I totally forgot to ask on their forums.
Well I did try the %1% but CAV still doesn't launch.
ill try to ask on their forum if anyone knows the variables. hopefully someone uses CIS as well there.
I did notice the on-access scanner with CAV today for the first time when I opened the bluetooth folder from Intel, as it detected a dll and I have reported as false positive via the website as well as the tool in CIS.
Heffed, mind if I ask if the FDM is stable on 64bit architecture? I might switch back to FDM if it is, since I used to have it before on my old XP machine.

RE: biozfear configuration
I'll wait on the reply from orbit forums then.
By the way Heffed, care to look at my configuration and comment?
Thanks a lot.

RE: biozfear configuration
Would anyone explain or recommend if sanboxie would be handy for a gamer like me? Also any sandboxie's alternatives?
Note VMWare that I have is not particularly to test security software etc. It's more to bypass security on online games and be able to run 2 accounts mainly to trade and use as storage... silly I know but well it works.

RE: biozfear configuration
Between lastpass and roboform, which one do you guys recommend? Or is there another alternative? I mainly have the passwords stored on FF/Chrome.

RE: biozfear configuration
good setup. have you noticed problems with the gpu? if you have the add the gpu's exe files in d+ exclusions and the problem will be solved. I say this because I have seen on my old and the new one that adding the gpu's exe file in d+ exlusions helps to improve the performance. I noticed that especially on my HP pavilion tx2690eo gpu.
I have also added it in the AV's exlusions
Just a tip in case you feel that gpu isn't performing as it should
