Well when I installed it using a clean install in VirtualBox, that did not exactly respond any differently. Something is up with the Defense+ I think. I am hoping the folks at the Comodo forums are helpful. I could always do without the Defense+ though.

Is Vista SP2 safe to run with just Comodo's Firewall?
- Actually a clean install would be to re-route the program's path/registry on the new install. You could try that in case that's the fault.

- I haven't used Vista as yet, but I would say yes it would be safe.

Try system restore, then totally delete the older version. If you're still bugged out, a reformat was your aim anyway.

I had been lazy about updating Comodo for the past 2 months. It's been bugging me nonstop. I downloaded Comodo's Internet Security 3.10 suite (latest one out). I installed ONLY the firewall (not the A/V) with Optimum Pro-Active settings by default. I let it do it's thing for the installation process and then restarted as prompted. When I restarted I noticed my machine would freeze at the desktop. Tried rebooting a bunch of times and it would still occur. I would get some messages to Allow/Block some items but at some point the desktop would act as if it were still functioning but in fact I could not double click to open icons, I could not do anything in the taskbar or start menu. I could not right click anywhere. And then it would finally reach the point in which the mouse would cease to function. So I uninstalled it from my machine via safe mode. I figured maybe my machine was just messed up because of all the crap software I've been installing lately to test. I figured on a brand new install it would work fine.

So I created a partition in VirtualBox 3.0. I installed Vista Ultimate then installed SP1 followed by SP2. Both SP1/2 were installed via setup files downloaded straight from the MS website. I then proceeded to download/install whatever few updates which were left in Windows Update (aside from IE8), even the optional ones. After doing all that, I downloaded Comodo's Internet Security 3.10 suite (latest one out). I installed ONLY the firewall (not the A/V) with Optimum Pro-Active settings by default. I continued the entire setup, let it scan, then I restarted when it asked me to. When I restarted, Vista would load, but would then freeze on me when it got to the desktop. I did this a bunch of times to no avail. I tried it in safe mode in which Vista loads up fine and doesn't freeze. I was perplexed as to why this happens. Is this typical in Vista SP2? Anyone have a similar experience?

This is why I wanted to test it out because I figured with my luck something would happen with the latest version out. This is acting up worse than Zone Alarm did when I tried to install it my first time in Vista. That froze up my entire machine as there were too many prompts to allow/blow. This just freezes my machine before I even get prompts it seems.

Any ideas?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Is-Comodo-supposed-to-freeze-machine-22659429 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 01:55:43 EDT
