For years I’ve used Comodo for my firewall and Avast as my antivirus, but Avast started downloading 3rd party garbage with its AV and giving me other problems. I dumped it. I intially installed the Comodo suite on this machine and started having apps and sites blocked from use.
I appreciate my firewall and AV protecting me and my machine, but I do not appreciate it blocking things I know to be safe, and then not providing a reasonably convenient way to whitelist those apps and sites. I have dumped Comodo Firewall and AV (though I continue to use Dragon as one of my browsers).
At the moment I am using Zone Alarm for both and it seems to be doing a fine, yet unobtrusive, job.
