Identify Safe Programs

[Guest]

Hello,

Read this review on CPF, http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1969225,00.asp

From The review:

They identify over 7,000 known programs as safe (a feature found in the Pro version of ZoneAlarm but not in the free edition), and multiple related pop-ups are automatically combined. Rather than wait for Comodo to notice each application's first attempt at Internet access, I told it to scan the system for known applications and authorize them. That cut down the number of pop-ups dramatically—a nice feature.

Ok, so where in CPF can you tell it to scan the system for known applications?  I've looked but must be blind.   

Thanks

Hi,

Open up CPF and click the security tab at the top.  You will see just over half way down a header called wizards.  Underneath this you will see 'Scan for known applications'  click this and your away  .

You can use it any time.  If CPF recognises the program it will automatically add it when you do a scan or you can manually add when CPF alerts you through a popup.
