Comodo firewall? - Delta - Jan 5, 2017
Hi,
Heard this was one of the best firewalls available to download? Looking for something free not wanting to pay. I downloaded it and it seemed to completely block everything until I setup the rules correctly.

Comodo is what I used in past, it's nice.

I used to like it in the past but now it just consumes way too much memory and CPU
I don't know what they did with it they just ruined it
windows firewall is usually more than good enough (however it does not detect or report outbound connections like comodo does)
having comodo tell you when a program does that is insanely useful for stopping basic keyloggers (and rats) from sending data back to the attacker
however i suspect that if the malware injects itself into another process which you flagged as trusted then would comodo not notice it?

Comodo Firewall Sucks compared to Strixus Firewall

I used Comodo in the past. I loved it. I don't use a firewall (only the Windows one) because I don't click on anything. When I want to run something I do it in a virtual machine thank I have a restore point for every boot.
But yeah, Comodo is very powerful for a personal PC.

Comodo still tells me about my browser making new connections. I recently logged into my email and it came up before the page was loaded asking me if I wanted to connect so maybe it would? I surely hope it does.

Thank you all for the responses Comodo seems to be running fine so i'll stick to it for now :)

usually a good way to know is to use a process manager like Process Explorer and then look for connections with TCP view and you could also use wireshark to see what data is sent
process explorer usually shows more information
