Latest Version of Comodo Firewall Released

[M1GU31]

Hm, I wonder if we should have our own section on this. People post which antivirus software is friendly with COMODO firewall. I already know a few.

MSE is friendly with comodo have no problems on my machine.

Avast! is friendly with the COMODO Firewall.

Hi,

Its unlikely, and seems to behave well together - see post #181.

No it will be just fine I use that exact combo and no problems what so ever. They work along each other very well.

Thanks for the info...

Any third party firewall will have the potential to conflict with any other active malware program you have running. If not now, they will only be a few up dates away from conflicting with something in the future.
MS will tell you NOT to run other security apps real time with MSE, except for something like Sandboxie. Just because they are not in conflict now doesnt mean you wont be in for REAL trouble in the not to distant future.

If that is the case, then MSE will have let you down. A Guy

IMO if you are using Norton360, you have a great firewall, that will not conflict with the malware remover(s) contained within Norton360. I know I am going to hear a ton of flack about Norton360, but been with it since McAfee failed me. I'm talking about the old time McAfee before Symantec bought them out. And as far as AVG, Avast, etc free protection goes, do some reading up on those programs, for example WHICH lab(s) tested them to verify their ability to ACTUALLY protect your rig(s)? Norton/Symantec has decades of proven track records. TRUE they, as well as others can't guarantee you 100%, but that is because new malware is out basically hourly.

Not sure what you are trying to say. What im trying to say is windows firewall for vista and 7 is more then strong enough, and will vastly improve system stability comparred to a 3rd party firewall running with other realtime anti malware programs.

Windows firewall may be strong enough, I will not say more then strong enough. It is no doubt a decent firewall. But based on your statements MSE only plays well with built in windows features. I prefer Avast to MSE as it has served me well. I also prefer Comodo firewall with Defense + turned on. These play well with each other, and with real time Malwarebytes and Superantispyware.

I personally have no system stability issues, as is true of many others. So I also will not agree that it will vastly improve system stability. IF one has issues with their chosen AV/Malware programs causing system instability, then certainly MSE and the windows firewall may well be a good alternative, but it doesn't mean it is the better choice for everyone.

People use Norton with no issues, and are happy with it. I'm sure the same can be said of McAfee (I'm pushing it there ). For them, what works is the best choice. A Guy

Fair enough, i understand what your saying. I still believe less is more with security apps, but i cant say your wrong in your choice if its working for you.
