Do I Need the Memory Firewall

« on: March 28, 2008, 01:07:43 PM »

I have Comodo 3 with Defense+ and NOD32. Do I really gain protection if I install the Memory Firewall?

Greetings!

Yes. Neither CFP 3 or NOD32 protects against buffer overflows, so adding CMF will be a great addition to your security softwares. CMF will also soon be integrated into CFP 3.

I don't know, but I would guess when CFP with ThreatCast is out of BETA. I can only guess, but egemen or Melih might have a more accurate answer.

i've been using CMF for maybe 5months but i've never encountered any BO attack so far.
but i read somewhere that buffer overrun is a common exploit.so better safe than sorry, beside, it's simple, install & forget app.
