I have installed Comodo, what a headache but i'm sure it has helped my security. It reminded me of an old copy of norton i had. Every time something has tried to access the internet it would ask me to apply an action. I had to research a couple of things at process library and they turned out okay but windows installer tried to update at the smae time so i had windows coming up everywhere, i chose the installer/update option for those selected files which seemed to help. So far so good but i ran the firewall test again but the results were the same so i guess the tester needed reloading or it was automatically trusted by comodo. I'm not sure it is for me becasue i'm only a moderate user when it comes to this type of thing.

Also is it usuall for my web pages to load a bit slower now or will it take a while for it to warm up and get back to proper effeciency?

Great program but i can see myself getting lost in it thanks for your help and if it causes to many more headaches i'll just uninstall...
Thanks....

Well i didn't last long with comodo, it stuffed up when i tried to launch an online game i guess it was blocking it. I then restarted and and it froze at windows startup, then i restarted again and it froze when it was detecting my drives so i thought it was best to system restore.

Thanks for the help guys but i'll have to re-vist this issue at a later date, cheers....
