#  Base protection against Phishing with anti-Phishing  blacklist : Dangerous Internet resources listed in the g4bi database are blocked by IdnWebShield.

Blacklist extension phishing-toolkit-blocker: Dangerous link signatures which are commonly used by phishing-toolkits are detected and blocked. Phishing-toolkits are software programs designed to help Internet criminals generating large portals of different spoofed Web sites where victims are asked to provide their sensitive personal data.
 
# Anti-phishing prophylaxis: A complex firewall-based rule-system combined with an intelligent heuristic build up a powerful protection shield to detect phishing-websites. Every day the protection-profiles are regenerated. The IdnWebShield software is automatically kept up-to-date with the latest versions of Anti-Phishing prophylaxis.
 
# Phishing attack prevention with IdnCCD protocol : Prevents Phishing attacks with international domain names. For more details see some FAQs.
 
# Pharming attack prevention anti-Pharming local DNS monitor: Monitors your local "hosts" file for any changes notifies you accordingly if you try to access some internet resource quoted in this file.
 
# IdnWebShield DefCon (DEFense CONdition) Pharming attack prevention anti-Pharming authenticated DNS cache: Processing your web requests IdnWebShield accepts DNS information only from authoritative nameservers .
 
# Phishing attack prevention with anti-Phishing URL monitor : Analyzes the format of requested links. Prevents Phishing attacks using some form of technical deception designed to make a link in an email appear to belong to a certain organization.
 
# World-Wide-Web link detective: looks up background information about a link. It should complement your knowledge of what is going on behind the scenes.

Melih and friends? What do you think about this prog?

Please test it and share your thoughts with us...

No one seems to be wanting to answer yet...

Now listening to crappy old Scorpions (they were not as crappy in the 70s as they are now...: Is there anybody there?

very difficult to judge its effectiveness and compare it against other products in the market place..
however, at some stage, we will take a look..

Thanks if doing that Melih, cause many sites here do praise it as the best of breed of it's kind at the moment (even if criticizing the somewhat clumsy (Austrian-)German to English translation of the prog), but I somehow feel they do not really know how this proggie really works. Could be a new intelligent spyware or trojan at the end, or even worse, and everyone using it just loves it....?

I should've become a fullgrown programmer, I really regret I gave this up after my youthfulness started to leave me....

[MorphOS REBOL]

Any new insights into this proggie yet, Melih?

sorry didn't have time yet.. busy with cfp v3 and cav3

Sorry, Melih

You are right CPF (and obviously the development on CAVS) are way more important, but that leads me to another question:  how much are you (personally) involved (as a human being) in programming and developing COMODO's products?

1. Are you one of the programmers of CPF?
2. Are you a main programmer for this great freebie?
3. Will you ever forgive me for having been asking this direct question?

If yes, you're obviously a great human being. Touchable, that means.

Cheers Melih

My coding days, unfortunately, are distant memory now
I don't do any coding (even though some days I wished I did, as I enjoyed it). We have just under 300 programmers who work for Comodo full time, they are the lucky ones who gets to write all the code for Comodo

No problem indeed

Thanks for answering, Melih.

Your answer, indeed, reminded me a bit of my own past and present (even if our "jobs" are in no way comparable, at the moment)....

But, as always with me (nasty me), another question to you, don't know if that is of any interest to you, though.

Did you ever hear, and / or have you ever been interested in REBOL? Which is / or may be rather an underground programming language at this moment, but lurking out there for many years now, it's future fate probably depending on the lifetime of it's creator. Who was, indeed, the creator of the Amiga OS in the early 80's (at least you told us, you love 80's music, but how about the comps that were en vogue in those very days?)

Would be nice to hear from you on this topic...Thanks anyway, Melih (and I think I can understand why you restrained from programming)

OMG - Carl S. - that brings back memories.

Thanks for making me feel old - er!

No I haven't heard about Rebol. what is it about? I prefer assembly for hacking tbh

Well, here's some easy description by Carl himself:

REBOL is pronounced "reb-ol"
As in rebel yell or "rebel with a cause".

REBOL stands for Relative Expression Based Object Language.
It uses "relative expressions" (context dependent dialects) to create a powerful new dimension similar to that found in natural human languages.

REBOL was created by Carl Sassenrath.
He is the system designer known for bringing multitasking to personal computers.

REBOL provides a lightweight platform for Internet applications. REBOL's power makes applications small so they are less expensive to create, distribute, maintain, and upgrade. In the size of a typical web page, you can fit an entire REBOL application.

REBOL is "both sided" technology. It is an integrated solution to distributed computing that works best when it runs on both the client and the server. (However, that is not a requirement, you can use it on just the client or just the server.)

REBOL is more than just a programming language. It is also a language for representing data and metadata. It provides a consistent architecture for computation, storage, and exchange of information.

REBOL introduces the concept of dialecting. Dialects are small, efficient, domain-specific languages for code, data, and metadata.

REBOL has been intentionally kept small and lightweight. It only takes a few seconds to download, and it requires no special libraries to run, but it includes hundreds of functions, dozens of datatypes, built-in help, multiple Internet protocols, graphics, sound, and much more.

REBOL is cross-platform. REBOL spans more than 40 systems. A program written on Windows runs equally well on Linux, BSD, OS X, and many other platforms... with no changes necessary.

Organizations large and small use REBOL to create Internet applications and solutions in a fraction of the normal time and cost.
