Comodo Alert for Windows Updates

When I just returned to the computer, a little alert window from Comodo popped up, saying there were critical Windows updates just released. Clicking it produced this page in the browser:

Comodo Internet Security Release Notes

I then had Windows to check for updates, and it said that there was nothing new. I have never seen an alert window like this from Comodo before, but then I haven't been using it all that long. Is this a normal behavior for it to expect in the future?

I'm assuming that page is nothing more than a simple list, that is not checked against current updates installed, otherwise it makes no sense to me at all.

It might be refering to updates that came out on tuesday. A lot of us geeky people set Windows Update to run when we tell it to, and it never hurts to give a reminder for us to actually install those updates. Other than that, I am not sure.

Thank you :)

I did a little bit of looking around and it seems that Comodo tells you about the updates, whether you already installed them or not.

Go to Control Panel/Windows Update and check on history. This is what I got on the 13th.

I just got a message from Comodo firewall Comodo Internet Security Release Notes
I checked Windows Update to verify and there was nothing. Is this credible or possible?

thanks :)

GRB70,
I'm curious....
To receive that message from Comodo firewall presupposes that you indeed have that installed.
Do you?
Have you ever received this type of notification in the past?
