Security-problem with Comodo´s firewall & Defence+ !

hi !

there seems to be a really BIG Security-problem with Comodo´s Firewall & Defence+.

last night i when running Comodo´s Leak-Test (CLT) i discovered that it´s NOT working as it should & as it used to do.
i only got 180 / 340 points !

OMG...

a complete disaster, although a-squared (now EAM) did a good job,
and detected 5 suspected activities that Comodo missed.

last time i checked with CLT i got 340/340, so there must be some problems.

last night i spent an hour checking all my settings & trying to improve the security, but nothing i did helped.
i´ve been working a few hours now, trying everything possible, but it´s still 180/340.

so if you are using Comodo´s Firewall & Defence+, the latest version 4.0.141842.828 from 12 April 2010, then i strongly suggest that you run CLT and check your own results !

i´m using Online Armor FREE now and i got 330/340 when running CLT.

i previously used W7-beta, W7-RC & W7-Professional, when i tested Comodo with CLT.
now i´m running W7-Enterprise 32-bit, but i also have both Vista & Windows Server 2008 installed, so i´m going to install Comodo on those 2 O/S´s just to verify that it isn´t W7-Enterprise that is acting weird.

I wonder what changed with Comodo? I am a new users of comodo so I have no point of reference. I may try the OA though. I was figuring out how to use Comodo though :) This could become a very time consuming experience chasing the holy grail of firewalls. I can already see OA or any other vendor making what ever mistake Comodo made and then jumping vendor to vendor.

TY hackerman1 for the great post... :)

I see they are also testing a beta system for the 64 bit windows7 users... will wait for the outcome... :)

Are you referring to Comodo?

After fiddling with the settings after my outcome kept getting 220 i now get 340 with Comodo.

...Keep failing COAT. :|

Care to share what settings you fiddled with? For me this is a learning experience of the various software firewalls out there and how well they do what they claim.
