    Everytime I want to run a new game, comodo would give me like 5 plus warnings, some of them coming after the screen has gone black thus preventing me from doing anything and making my computer jam. I had to hard reset the computer at least 5 times already because of this. Does comodo have a game mode like zone alarm or should I add the games files to a "trusted file" folder or what?

    Thanks a lot guys!

    Moved to Security and Anti-Virus forum.

    Are you able to alt-tab out of the game when this happens? Also, are you using Defense+ or just strictly the firewall?

    Set the FW and D+ to training mode (right click on systray icon) while you play for awhile and it should self set all permissions.

    I run it on my laptop with Defense+ turned off and the firewall on Train (with Safe Mode), I think. But I'm in Linux right now and too lazy to re-boot. I actually stopped using Comodo on my desktop because it was freezing things up on occasion. :rolleyes:

    I've been using PC Tools Firewall Plus, but it seems to crash VLC Media Player without exception. Hmmm. :p




    (OMG M$ sux m0ve 2 linux)
