Please post features that you would like in future versions of Comodo Anti-ViruSpyware.

Let us wish for a constantly improving product!

1: Option to disable HIPS befor installing. HIPS rely sucks it makes the system totaly unstable (Beta 2.0.9.20 somthing). So if a furture update would give the use the option to disable that featur during the installation it would help alot.

2: Lite firewall build in (The rull system from the Comodo Firewall would be enof i think. Whit standard port stealthing ofcuse). Somting like Trend Micro had done whit PC-cillin 2002 to PC-cillin 2004.

3: Option to synsc Comodo settings whit other Comodo Antivirus program on LAN to config faster. Or an export settings to file option.

4: Low CPU/mem use under 10 Mb ram. max 4% CPU use on an standard 3 GHz P4.

5: Maybe a futur server client edtion for companys/schools ect. Were the client could download/Lear from the server to client silenty.

I wish CavAUD.exe would stop eating so mush cpu so my game freeze! (EQ2 is the game)

How about a Safelist Update notification that lets you know Comodo have received and analysed the files that you sent them?

Hi,
First thanks for great product.
Ok straight to the point.
I think it would be great to have some kind of internal check for hidden/stealth registry keys or ADS/ hidden directories. Lastly I was checking CAVS (Beta2.0.08.20)on laptop and it said its clean. Than I run AVG antirootkit and it found some hidden driver hooked to some legitimate winXP service(very sorry that I didnt write down more details but I have very limited time to check it - It was my boss laptop.)
After removing that hidden entry (and reboot) Antivirus immidiatelly found trojan (again, sorry for no details). I ve installed CAVS on a infected computer to check it against all threads so CAVS didnt let trojan to install itself - just to make it clear.

Best regards,
 Piotr

As for me, I say there needs to be the option to create a rescue disk.  I didn't notice it in the stable release of cavs.  Also, there must be an option for scanning multiple levels of archived files.  Zip files, etc...  At least 6 levels deep.

This post in its entirety can be seen in the Firewall Wishlist; this last portion of it applies to CAVS.

Owen, the HIPS is part of CAVS Beta 2.x.  If you've downloaded CAVS from Comodo's main website, you probably have version 1.1, which does not have a HIPS module.

Where can I download the bea 2.x?

This is the Beta Corner:  http://forums.comodo.com/index.php/board,61.0.html, where you can check out the progress thru all versions.

Beta 2.x is a huge improvement over 1.1, in pretty much every way - stability, speed, CPU/resources, definitions, plus the application-based HIPS as well.

Be aware, however, that it is still a Beta (even tho very stable) and some users have experienced difficulties and some pretty serious issues (although not all users, by any means).  My advice is to be sure to have backups of any data/files/drives; preferably (IMO) image/clone/ghost copies of your entire system (with a bootable rescue disk/CD).  Also, within CAVS be sure to turn off the automatic Quarantine feature for the On-Access scanner (which is On by default), as there have been some issues of it locking up critical files; best to avoid that scenario if possible. 

All that is not said to scare you away from using it; just to make sure you're going in "eyes open..."

I test the most things first on an VM where I have a actual snapshot to that I can return with 2 clicks.
As about ma Host PC I have always have an up to date image of the OS partition and keep my user profile on an other one separatly backed up (more frequently).

If I see it right the HIPS module only controls the execution of unknown applications, or does it manage also ther things like registry writes?

Owen

[Little Mac]

You are correct, Owen, it's not a behavior-blocker, so it's not defending the registry per se.  It will create alerts based on an application being executed (and if the application changes).

Further questions on it would be best in the BETA corner, so this thread isn't completely hijacked...

Ok if i will have any fourther questions about it i'll post there.

for the time being i have an own wish for the new version,
it would be cool if comodo Av would be present on www.virustotal.com, almost all AV products are present there and its realy an nice site.

G'day,

In the On-Demand exclusion list, I'd like to have the option to have any inclusions entered into this list mirrored in the On-Access exclusion list and vice versa.

Ewen :-)
