Hello stvh1,
and welcome to the forums.....
Well comodo is the new pioneering company in the field of desktop security products which has taken desktop security market by storm thanks to its top notch FREE security applications..
I see that you have already read a few articles about comodo firewall.....so i assume that you know it's the
ONLY leak-proof firewall available...
so I
STRONGLY recommend you to use this firewall.
now, about the comodo antivirus/spyware (CAVS)
I think that its not as good as other antivirus softwares out there but its constantly improving..
the latest one is 2.0 (beta) but its advantage is...it has got HIPS.
Read more about HIPS here....
http://forums.comodo.com/hips_host_intrusion_prevention_systems-b70.0/So i suggest that you stick with your current A/V for now and come back to CAVS later...
that of course if you like it ('am sure you WILL)..

regards
ashu
