Re: Comodo acquires BOClean
Aww fck!
Yeap there goes another one.
I predict about 7 months to 1 year of Boclean quality and then bleh...failings due to the pressure of the bigger company and eventual ineffective bloat ware. 
I am sad very very very sad. |

It does seem of late that good products seem to go downhill after being bought out.
Hopefully this won't happen with BOClean but only time will tell.
The level of trust I did have in this product, after all these years, has just gone down considerably.
At least Kevin and Nancy will get a much deserved rest.

I do hope the McAleaveys got a great price. But I have a very bad feeling about this. I don't like Comodo at all and I think this is a sad day for us users....but I wish Kevin and Nancy the best and we do what we have to do ...all of us.

It could be worse, at least they didn't sell out to Symantec.
If it was destined to happen, I would have prefered a union between Eset and NSclean. |

Charleston, IL | I think so. Oh by the way, I guess I should have said "a union between Eset and Privacy Software Corporation" (makers of BOClean). |

At least they didn't sell out to Microsoft. Microsoft bought RAV & converted it to M$-mediocrity. I'm sure they would have done the same to BOC. |

I agree with tempnexus this is a bad move for BOClean. Now that it is going to be free watch how all these hacked version start showing up on the net.
