[QUOTE="Arequire, post: 786098, member: 59283"] I'm not sure how Comodo fared honestly. Remember that CCleaner itself wasn't technically the actual malware; it just connected to a server hosting the malware and downloaded it from there. So assuming the malware that was downloaded was unsigned or using a certificate by an untrusted vendor then it should've been sandboxed by Comodo. If it was signed using a certificate from a trusted vendor then I believe it would've been allowed to run without hindrance. [/QUOTE]
