Additionally, assuming you're right and its the marketing guys misbehaving while the devs are innocent, companies like this shouldn't be run in a distributed fashion like that: a top-down emphasis on reliability is the only way to run a security company.There are a long list of problems with this, such as sellers forced to use the crappy Amazon interface for its reputation as a strong security portal, good web traffic getting dumped or blocked because it doesn't have trusted certs, and even fewer ways to discern good from bad companies. Now discussions are up on Slashdot about abandoning the cert system altogether. Comodo is a great product, but the certificate issue isn't just a hiccup - its a huge failure to maintain some kind of trust system on the internet. Like user ChipsNHotSauce I have traded some of my privacy to get some great, free features from some companies (notably Google).

I think reputations for security are important:

IMO developers working for a security software company would be the ones who most value privacy and would object to any possibility of backdoors or anything that would make the software less secure. they would be completely different departments within the company, the certificates would be sold by salespeople and managers (and we all know how trustworthy they are ), the software would be written by developers.

I used to use Kerio, until they changed to Sunbelt and made the software a system hog and simplified it. Am I being naive?Īs for the data-collection thing, that is a concern, but unfortunately there aren't that many good free, highly configurable firewalls, not last time I looked anyway. Selling security certificates to malicious groups, even knowingly, doesn't really have anything to do with their software. Backdoors to the FBI, Big brother, cannibal lawyers, bars of soap comes to mind. Now I wish I took the foresight that ANYTHING could be a potential privacy/security risk, even those that are supposed to protect your data.

Once processes to be trusted have been selected, users may wish to reboot in order to ensure that the changes have taken effect.ChipsNHotSauce wrote:I started using Comodo Firewall on my new machine, and was planning to install on other machines.

In the pop-up window, click Select -> Running Processes.Ī series of processes running on the host computer wiil now appear, which the user may designate to have Comodo Internet Security trust. A box in the left-hand column entitled Define a New Trusted Application will appear. To add Immunet as a Trusted Application, navigate to the Firewall link at the top the Commodo Internet Security user interface. It is good practice to include Immunet Protect in Commodo Internet Security as a Trusted Application to ensure problem-free operation in the future.

It is important to keep this checked as it will allow the product to update itself in the future without interference. Users will note that Always trust the publisher of this title is checked by default. In order to install Immunet Protect successfully, the user should select Allow. When users install Immunet Protect, they will be prompted to allow Immunet Protect to run in an elevated privileged state.

Comodo Internet Security has very aggressive firewall settings in the default configuration.
