Hey all,

If you install CVA and then copy the folder C:\PROGRAM FILES\COMODO\VULNERABILITY ANALYZER to a USB drive, it can then be run from the USB drive on any other PC without installing.

Neat tool if you go onsite to fix a PC and/or troubleshoot software issues.

Great work guys!

Too many false positives.

I seriously think Comodo should try to focus on a few core products rather than trying to be everything. It's better to be a master in a few areas than being a jack in all trades...

Oh come on now.   Too many false positives?

I hardly think so.   This is a beta and shows a lot of promise.   You cannot seriously object to Comodo putting resources into many different areas.   I am sure that different people are working on different programs, there is no need at all for them to all fall over each other on the same project.

Comodo has over 250 programmers. All products have their own team. Including this one, This is the first BETA Release off a new comodo product, please give it time to grow.

Compared to a rival product that i shall not name that is also in beta (and yes, i'm talking about the first beta), yes, there is too many FPs.

A number, if not all FPs reported so far will be fixed upon next release on the 6th!

Found several of the same False Positives as others.  Only one was correct, java
Tried to search for IE6 both by file and by registry keys and could not, been using IE7 since it was a RC

Have a hunch files are being found that are old and not being used.  As I mentioned Secunia at the beginning found IE7 in 3 locations C:\ with alpha numeric, the current updated version, and another older version in Windows SDold.

After several months of use the old files should be able to be deleted.  Wonder if the complete location and a warning if the file can or cannot be deleted.  Checking the last time it was accessed might be one of the ways.

The files that have alpha numeric names or no names is why I just asked for a File Identifier.  The other security programs should detect malware but this also could be another tool.

Oh I just uninstalled and reinstalled IE7 (MS quitely updates the versions with out a major release) both versions were identical !  Post both the current version and location and the latest version.  In this instance it MUST be the IE8 beta ?

Because of resouce usage, I would prefer to manually run the Vulnerability Analyzer or have it run at startup print a file to screen and then drop out.  Again current and new version numbers and full file location with the ability to know if a file could be deleted safely!

Here is a comparison from last night between Comodo Vulnerability Analyzer and Secunia online scan
Oh in Secunia downloaded PSI scan it showed RegScrubXP and RegCleaner at End of Life.  Which only means there will no longer be support (these programs run only when I access them)

Yet another great program from Comodo.  Comodo really are doing more to protect our computers than any other company - amazing.   

My only feedback is that the updater always crashes (see attached screenshot).

I'm using XP SP2, fully patched, with CFP, BOClean, CMF and NOD32 but doubt any of these are contributing to the crash.

Update process works just fine for me, tho it seems like it's still crashing Firefox (using 3.0b5 for your information).

For me the updater is doing fine

[n1sh1k4ze]

Err... Can't believe my eyes. Just tested CVA. It said that I don't have VULNERABILITY. I run on XP SP2 and I don't update it at all. nn; Good program, IMHO. Keep the good work.
