• "Comodo Pro: For amateurs, too"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: Comodo Firewall Pro 3.5.57173.439

Comodo Firewall Pro gets a major revision from its publisher, upgrading to Version 3 with some significant changes. Most importantly, user complaints about resource hogging when Version 2 came out have been all but eradicated with the new model.

The program still provides a smorgasbord of information and options for advanced users, but it's simple enough for beginners, and runs smoothly and silently in the background. The most obvious new features include support for Windows Vista at the expense of Windows 2000 support, although the older v2.4 with Windows 2000 support is still available.

The other big change is the new interface. This new UI isn't exactly an improvement on the old one. However, the blue color scheme has been toned down in favor of basic white, and there's more empty space between the various options. Old terminology has been replaced with more intuitive terms. The new main tabs are Summary, Firewall, Defense , and Miscellaneous. In each, though, there are links to relevant security issues so users can drill down to learn more about how the firewall is performing.

There's a new feature called the Host Intrusion Prevention System that supposedly protects against unknown threats. Obviously, it's hard to tell if it works unless an unknown threat gets in, but it didn't seem to affect system performance negatively. Mostly, Comodo rears its head most often soon after installation when Security Alerts ask about new Internet connections as the program "learns" your computer's behavior.

Don't be fooled by the name, either. Comodo is labeled Pro but it offers up its dragon-sized treasure of features for free.

  "Excellent firewall"

  by redcell on March 24, 2009

  Pros: Just gets on with the job without getting in the way

  Cons: Nothing of note

  Summary: Anything is better that Windows Firewall. I also refuse to pay for Norton or other manufacturers offers. This seems to do the job perfectly

  "gain control of your computer & it controls you"

  by ligerz1 on March 21, 2009

  Pros: gives you total control of your computer not a single program will evade your grasp=)

  Cons: laggs my computer when i try to install the simplest of games, useless icon in your computer. no i right click on it it lags my computer.gives weird lagg that freezes your computer the only way to unfreeze it is to ctrl+alt+delet repetitively

  Summary: if you are willing to sacrifice 90% of your games for the total control of your computer then this is for you. if not then i suggest using another firewall
