Please don't bump a topic in less then 24 hrs.

When updating the AV database after a clean install of CIS there is a big download waiting of approx 35 MB. During this process the progress indicator will stay at 30% for a long period of time confusing many users.

So when the update is slow you will see CIS stick at 30% for a long time. How is the situation right now?

CAV is made to detect and remove all types of malware. How ever it wont hurt to intall something like MalwareBytes and/or antispyer for on deman scanning.

True Omelet Guy, installing MBAM or other won't impede but patience is a virtue, and many haven't this unfortunately, CIS will put Antivirus to date now at DB 1542 as of 5:00 PM Eastern so simply ride with it and let it flow.

It's never a bad idea to have a second opinion. I have yet to see any proof that Comodo isn't capable of keeping my system safe all by itself, but I still run scans using MBAM, SAS, and Avira.

It takes a while, but the database DL will jump from 30% to 51% in time, then steadily (but still slow) climb till completed.
