The new popup alerts now include additional options which allow the users to take COMODO Time Machine snapshots or set Windows system restore points, submit suspicious files for immediate analysis.
* IMPROVED! Antivirus Engine
Antivirus engine is improved for better detection and cleaning. The new engine now has disinfection support for the infected files.
A new command line virus scanner (cavscan.exe) has been introduced in order to address the need for scanning the computers in windows safe mode or scanning files transferred from MSN etc.

Well, I hope comodo must have improved the features and the way it works on the system with this new release. There were some serious issues related to user experience in older version which made many users feel bad and move away from it.

We would love to hear some feedback from anyone who tests it.

Unbelievably Norton Firewall allowed penetration, when i used the famous Leaktest.exe

So i have installed Comodo Firewall 4.0 (a part of Comodo Internet Security), i was able to block the leak successfully. GUI looks cool. I will test Comodo for a while. Seems more reliable than Online Armor.
I tried installing PCtools firewall, but it said it would not be compatible with NIS.

PS:Avinash ,Check your PM

Thank you for the PM. Already replied.

As i said already, Comodo is a great software but the way it functions makes it bad. Hope its better now compared to previous versions.
