Here is the list of improvements to Comodo 10.0.0.86 over Comodo v 8.4.0.5076:

Is this safe to install? I saw that GeekBuddy is integrated into the Comodo Firewall interface and decided to check to see if this update remembers whether you chose to install originally without GeekBuddy. I would like to avoid GB. Also, assuming this update is stable. Anyone notice anything unusual?

GeekBuddy is a premium service and you should not be automatically charged without providing credit card details.

It's recommended to perform a clean install for any major software upgrades.

Remember to have backed up your current COMODO Firewall Configuration file and optionally an OS System Image.

This will reduce the chances of any instability and performance issues, whilst allowing for an easy recovery if something goes wrong.

during installation, you are given the option -- if you keep your eyes open -- not to install geekbuddy and chromodo browser. If you were sleeping on the guard during installation, and woke up to find geekbuddy on your system, you can just go and uninstall it as you would do with any other program.
