I Already Have The Latest Version. Why Are "Updates" Still Available? [Merged]

[Guest]

I have just updated to Comodo Firewall 3.017.304, noticed something unusual about the live updates, there will alway be updates available, even right after updated and roboot! I suspect that the last updates was never applied!

My OS is vista HP.

Let me know if anyone is also experiencing the same thing.

Thanks

If you re-boot again you will hopefully find there are no updates available, at least this worked for me.

same thing happining to me. the updater keeps popping up saying updates available.
i click on install but it comes up again a while later saying updates available again.
also if i check for updates manually there is always one available but it must not be installing.
im thinking they have not ironed the bugs out of this version yet..

Can confirm, no problems with updates on XP Pro; must just be a Vista problem.

I should think that all you need to do (for a work around), is turn off auto-update. As most of you check the forums quite often, you can see when an update is available and then do a manual update.
I do this with every program, not just Comodo, as I am on dial-up (don't ask, damn country living), and I don't have the bandwidth to have a half a dozen programs updating whilst I am trying to do my banking.

problem is the updates are obviously not installing. i have tried installing them manualy and it says updates installed. but if i check again straight away it says updates available again.

Did you run the Comodo Firewall checking tool under the miscellaneous tab? Maybe it will find an error then fix it.

Manual updates work fine for me under Vista Ultimate.  Did the last two CFP3 versions that way.  Don't know about automatic; don't use them.

I use automatic and it worked fine. So I don't know why it didn't work for them as it did for me.

If the Firewall test doesn't detect anything broken then maybe a re-installation will be the best choice, this new version of the firewall uses a new rule system format, and because of this even with the update you will lose your previous rules. Given that, maybe a fresh install would be the best option.
