Dunno why this website keeps pushing Comodo. I tried it and the POS thing kept crashing. Uninstalled.

Hmm…. everybody saying 4.0 has a memory leak and such, my outpost.exe is running at 11,472K, never had a problem with it, i use it on this laptop, and my desktop at home, only memory spike it may have is, if you’re using torrents, and finish the download and close the torrent program, it’ll spike outpost.exe to 90+%, other than that, it’s performed well

tried comodo last night. Not a fan. Doesn’t let you specify complex application rules, it’s just ‘Allow’ or ‘Block’. Plus, it seems hugely invasive and learns slowly and asks questions about EVERYTHING. Will stick to outpost, methinks.

I used Outpost 2008 and Nod v.3, both paid for.
The new Outpost is very buggy, slowed my net down.
Nod isn’t as good as it was. It is slipping down the rankings in tests.
I now use Kaspersky Suite, which is always high ranking in tests and it works well on Vista. It detected something that Nod had missed.

I’ve used outpost for a long time because of its flexibilty in blocking certain connections for certain programs etc… does anyone know if Comodo supports this? Or can give a quick comparison of the two (besides the obvious ‘free’ argument )

Anyone has bought a legitimate key for Kaspersky Internet Security that is valid for one year and above?

I bought NOD32 antivirus (good till 8.2008) and Outpost key (good till 11.2008), which I’d like to make a swap. Interested parties plz email me at walter.spence@gmail.com. (Due to a mishap I decided to change to KIS but they refused to refund)

Let me assure you those are legitimate keys I bought, and I wish to exchange for the same. I’ve stopped using them so they won’t get blacklisted. Thank you for your interest.

4.0 has a memory leak with the log viewer. Uses 31MB for no reason. Click on connections, it shrinks to 2MB! When opening web pages with large images, 4.0 would lock up for 15 seconds.

Instead of wasting my time with it, I switched to Comodo 3.0. Runs perfectly for me, I hope it doesn’t turn out to be spyware or something (free software this good is usually too good to be true).

@#nochance – Please let me welcome u – another nod-lover/kaspersky-hater !! It is ONLY your opinion about Kasp so don’t tell everyone will got the sam prob like u
Full system scan is something different than scan-on-demand, and KIS7 isnt’ use many system resources- but yes nod32 without firewall need’s 15MB’s RAM and KIS7 with Firewall needs 20MB – OMG!!! Can you believe it?! 5 I mean FIVE MB’s – what a resource hog !!
BTW 4 me scaning 250GB (almost full of data) and 160GB ( 70GB’s just of installed games) takes about from one hour to hour and half – yes indeed nod will scan it within 45minutes but this not the same than using sys resources in normal residental mode.
Let I may send u a greetings ?
Goodbye Dear nochance-to-use-logical-thinking

Thanks but i’ll pass, I already have a much newer version of this firewall. 4.0 is outdated.

hmm i havent used anything else but zonealarm (windows) and guarddog (linux), and i really i must say i prefered the complexity but complete control of guarddog.

is there something like that for windows, or something thats just a firewall (highly configurable) but not bloated like zonealarm etc
