I've had CRC detect some CIS/Defense+ entries, but they were indeed invalid (i.e. references to files no longer on my PC).

Surely CIS itself should be cleaning what is in fact its own database not CRC.

At present the Purge facilities in CIS only clear up at the high level, they do not clean out references to obsolete software within other valid software rules.

However even if CIS cleared out the obsolete references there would still be rules where references to software are generic and they would be picked up erroneously by CRC.

Personally, I don't believe CRC should be cleaning this area of the Registry and I have placed the the CIS Rules in the ignore list.

I have used the information to manually clean up the rules from within CIS but I believe any automated feature should be within CIS not CRC.

Agreed.  CRC shouldn't remove CIS keys because it'll leave some rules "blank" or "invisible", so they're not totally gone, especially when CIS is running due to its registry protection.

Exactly the same problem... In Defense+ Computer Security Policy the entries turn up blank.

Win XP SP3. Hope a Dev looks into this.

In Defense+ Computer Security Policy the entries turn up blank.

I had this too, but it occurred only once. A generic application icon showed up on the left side of the Secuiry policy window, but there was no application name (no text) next to it.  Unfortunately, I am not sure what caused this (although I suspect it was caused by cleaning the Firewall registry entries). I selected "edit" and there was no application name in the edit window either. So, I simply deleted these entries in the security policy window.  I could not reproduce the problem despite cleaning the firewall registry entries many times (including deleting reg entries with CIS policy window open and D+ alert on screen and other programs running).

The firewall entires only show up if you do an in depth scan. And in general, the same ones show up (on my system) again and again, although they are different from this user

Soyabeaner, could your situation have something to do with the purge function?  In other words, the reg entries in CRC would go away when the purge button is used. 

For my siutation (in my post above) the entries that I listed persisted despite the fact that all the security policies were vaild (i.e. purge function said everything was valid).

No, because those keys happened to be in areas deep in the Computer Security Policy rules where the Purge button isn't available.  I'm usually a clean freak, so I would've purged as much as possible before I executed CRC.

This might not be a bug but I'll report it anyway . I'm unable to update CSC when using "Run as..." under a limited account. Seems to go through the process of downloading the update and rebooting. After reboot, CRC is the same version . As said, this may not be a bug but if possible, please allow the update process to run under a limited account.

Edit: Sorry, please ignore above post. Just read the notice about uninstalling the previous version before installing this version. Will post back if I encounter problems with the next update .

Firefox bookmarks are still being deleted with default settings.   Another new user caught by this today.

Hi

This cannot be a feature because  will not allow to install or uninstall any programs on a limited account. We will study the possibility to implement something like this but we can't guarantee any success.

Thank you for your support.

Hello
I don't know if this can be considered a BUG but it seems that CRC and registry cleaner included in CSC provided different results. With CSC registry cleaner I got more 'unsafe to delete' entries than with CRC (+ 16 unsafe entries) and I got about 250 entries from the 'Comodo Firewall Pro Configurations' (CRC don't find these entries).  I don't think I should delete any of them.

I know that 'Comodo Firewall Pro Configurations' entries was already mentioned here, but I don't know if the comparison with CRC was made too. I suppose both registry cleaner engines (in CRC and CSC) are the same.

Best regards  and (V)
