My AV license will expire this month and I am wondering if anyone has used the Comodo AV and can tell me what its like. I am currently using the Comodo Firewall which works really well.

Thanks,
Frank

Thanks I admire the talent in this room.

While the firewall's great, the AV has a long way to go 'Protection Wise'. I would not recommend it.

While I use the Comodo firewall, for a free anti-virus I suggest = http://www.avast.com

The most important thing to keep in mind, regardless of which anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-spyware and firewall you use ( http://www.microsoft.com/athome/sec... ) is to keep it UPDATED, just as it is important to make sure you have all windows critical and security updates. + =

Hi,

I suggest Avast for several reasons:

I been using it for a long time with no problems.
It updates itself regularly
They have their own forum ...

It's free too if you are looking for free software.
