That should not be any problem...

For me, these are the 3 ( Windows operating system, svchost.exe and System ) blocked in comodo firewall always...

But iam not experiencing any problem because of that.So if you are not experiencing any problem like accessing websites..etc...so on.....because Windows operating system is getting blocked, then leave it,no problem.If you have any problem , post it.

Ok thanks for the info !

I also had a question for this next pic.

What you see is normal to you ?

2 svchost's HuhHuh

And MSN ?

I used this config https://forums.comodo.com/firewall_guides/setting_up_firewall_for_maximum_security-t30535.0.html

Also I would like to know if it's alright that I didn't create a Network Zone and that I only have Loopback Zone or should I do what is mentionned below since I'm connected to an exterior cable modem and don't have any other networks Huh

This is what is mentionned in the guides : Then we are going to set up a network connection to a router\home network;  
(This is usually done automatically for you)
Comodo -> Firewall  -> My network Zones

We will add a Loopback zone and Local Area Network #1
In most cases, the loopback zone is  127.0.01/255.0.0.0
In most cases, the Network zone is your routers address\host machine  192.168.1.100/255.255.255.0

Hi usay,

And MSN ?
Yes there are multiple instances of svchost.exe and in this case it's the RPC listener on port 135 and the other process is the DHCP "client" port 68 -> 67

MSN is connected to the normal port 1863 on an ip address belonging to Microsoft:

OrgName:    Microsoft Corp
OrgID:      MSFT
Address:    One Microsoft Way
City:       Redmond
StateProv:  WA
PostalCode: 98052
Country:    US

NetRange:   65.52.0.0 - 65.55.255.255
CIDR:       65.52.0.0/14

If your a single pc network you don't need the above rules.

If you have blocked traffic in the firewall log and you didn't ask for it then it's probably traffic destined to a port that's not active on your system, therefor CIS will block it most of the time on the "Windows Operating System" application. This is normal behavior.
