Hello everybody, This isn't a major issue, just kind of an annoyance. I disabled windows firewall and chose to use comodo firewall instead. I get this popup on the right lower side of the screen every time I reboot that says that my windows firewall is turned off. Of course I know this and I don't want it on. Is there a way to get rid of this? Obviously the windows firewall isn't that great, because I did the shields up test with the windows firewall and it found all sorts of holes and security issues. Now with my Comodo firewall I ran the same test and all ports are stealthed, which is a good thing.
