Has anyone tried online armor. I just tested it & it works great. Hate to admit it but it is much simpler to use than comodo. It just rank 1st place in the leak test by the way. I still have comodo installed but disabled to avoid c onflicts.  |

I have used it too. Switched away from Comodo a week ago, because Comodo no longer supports windows 2000. Its all very well everyone on here raving about version 3, but if it only supports XP and Vista, then alas I cannot use it.
So I switched to Online Armor and I have to say it seems very secure without so many interruptions. Comodo was good, but I think its time I moved on - I like the HIPS and the Firewall part of Online Armor.
Thats not to say Comodo is not a good product - it is. However, no further work is going to get done on Version 2 so no point in sticking with it.
As you quite rightly say, it is tied in first place for leak tests - and thats without the user having to do anything pretty much. As soon as you install it, it works perfectly.

(B)Online armor is good but I found out that it slows your bandwith a lot & I have a dsl connection & it makes it close to a dial up connection. It really slow your utorrent downloads a lot. I just unistalled it & switch back to Comodo which actually does not slow ur bandwith at all. It is really much simpler but I prefer Comodo which does not slow my internet connection to a crawl.  |

I used it for awhile. Slows your browsing down and since I am a gamer it makes for higher pings and increased latency. Also was causing explorer .exe error in alot of computers including my own. |

Notifying me about trusted programs so wasn't the problem. There probably isn't one thing I don't know about pc's. Go into there forums. Simply UNcheck "notify me programs are autotrusted"? Doesn't cause a program to lock up or slow down your browsing.

That´s a pretty broad statement Vettetech |

Slightly blown out of proportion no? Maybe 2 or 3 posts reporting errors. Actually the whole forum only sees a dozen or so posts a day with concerns. |

Have you checked your DSL connection? OA has had no affect on my speed. Actually my computer shuts down in 18 seconds with OA as opposed to 34 second with CFP3. |
