[QUOTE="Stronghold, post: 991733, member: 95285"] I found some bugs in 3.0.7 that did not exists in 3.0.6. With WiseVector 3.0.7 on Windows 11 (up to date) the program causes the computer to freeze when you enable the firewall. I've reproduced the issue a few times now and the only way to fix it is to do a hard reboot turning off the computer (CTRL-ALT-DEL does not work). Once the computer restarts the firewall will be enabled and you can enable Network Intrusion Detection. If the firewall is turned on you can toggle between disabled and enabled without a freeze as long as you don't restart your computer with the firewall disabled, if you do it will freeze again once you toggle it to enabled when the computer restarts. This could be a compatibility issue with McAfee or Comodo Firewall (Cruel CF settings) but it never caused a freeze in 3.0.6, this is new behavior in 3.0.7 and it looks like it has trouble enabling the Firewall module under certain circumstances causing WiseVector and Windows to freeze. There is also a new bug which sometimes doesn't allow Comodo to fetch internal updates if the Firewall is enabled in WV but instead gives you an empty update screen that doesn't go away until you restart your machine. This is a compatibility issue and new to 3.0.7. My WV has Web Protection Disabled, Firewall enabled and Network Intrusion Detection Enabled. Firewall security is set to low. It's also worth mentioning is that uninst.exe and the exe file created when you uninstall are labeled as Grayware by Crowdstrike Falcon and the WiseVectorHelperFive.dll is labeled as malware by 2 minor AV scanners on VirusTotal. These are false positives and all of the files are signed but it's a good idea to contact the scanners to let them whitelist the files since the files are not new but are still seen as malicious which could scare new users if they look through all the files installed on VirusTotal.
