Threatfire and BOClean
Has anyone heard of the programs Threatfire and BOClean?
Are they useful?
Can I run them with Avast and AVG Anti-Spyware running?
Thanks!

I use ThreatFire on several computers, and I like it a lot.
It won't interfere with regular antivirus.

I just went to their website and it looks like it won't enterfere with your normal anti-virus programs and such. I think I'm actually going to download this, even though I already have Kaspersky Internet Security, which is supposed to be pretty damn secure

I don't know anything about Threatfire but I have used BOClean since it was taken over by Comodo. The claims made for it are very impressive but I have no idea how good (or bad) it may be because it has never reported anything wrong!

It sits in my tray blinking away and updating itself and has never caused any problems with NOD32 or the Comodo Pro firewall.
