Solved: comodo internet security-how to install stand alone firewall
I just downloaded comodo internet security. Its firewall plus antivirus. I have Avast antivirus, i only wanted the comodo firewall. I read while downloading the CIS that i could chose the standalone firewall option while set up. I finished downloading and have now installed the CIS, what I couldn't find while installation was the option for stand alone firewall.
I now have CIS as well as Avast antifvirus. I have to uninstall one of the antiviruses.
Should I keep CIS(comodo antivirus +firewall) or should I opt for comodo stand alone firewall with Avast antivirus.
If i have to chose comodo firewall alone without the antivirus, how can i get the stand alone firewall without the anti virus now.
Maybe, i had to chose this before installation,but I seem to have missed that option while installation...what to do now?
Please Help.
Thanks in advance.

That is an old/outdated version, it's always good to have the most up to date version when it comes to security programs,

Here's instruction on how to remove the antivirus after it's been installed http://forums.comodo.com/install_set...-t31238.0.html

The option to only install the firewall is given during installation perhaps you didn't notice it? (See the picture I attached)
