This is 5.8 or 5.5? The title says 5.5 & the info down says 5.8.

I dont expect this kind of silly mistakes from the experts like you guyz.

Great job, guys!  

Congratulations!  

BTW, is it CIS 2012 or CIS 5.8.211697.2124 ?  
I can't see 2012 anywhere in GUI.

I usually do fresh installs, but tried updating from the final beta which seemed to work perfectly.

I think I will keep this updated version for now.

I wonder how many people ran the betas and had no bugs to report like me.   Very different from last year, so congratulations to all the staff who worked on 2012.

Good Job guys!
Updating now...

The worst release so far...
It blocks web traffic and browser (Google Chrome), blocks p2p connections even if I set exceptions for the port set it uses, and sandboxes programs without alerting. 

Beta version was running very nice, you screwed things up now.

Do you accept the possibility that the problem is in your PC and not in Comodo?
Uninstall CIS with Revo Uninstaller, restart the machine and then re-install CIS again....

Well done guys, downloading now!

[Ronny]

AV db download was lighting fast here!!
Rest seems to run fine here on an imported profile.

Beware you'll miss added protection if you use your previous 5.5 profile on this one!!
There have been a bunch of additions to protected files/folders/com etc.

Hi Siketa,
Now we mention release name e.g, 2012 in paid products GUI only.

It seems, everything is related to "Enable enhanced protection mode" option under Defence+ settings. If I disable it, everything runs fine.

But, it's a new version and I want all the features and the best possible protection. It seems I can't get it ...

[captainsticks]

Well done Comodo, all running well .

This is 5.8 or 5.5? The title says 5.5 & the info down says 5.8.
I dont expect this kind of silly mistakes from the experts like you guyz.

Even experts are human .

Please file a bug report, this is exactly the reason why this feature isn't enabled in the current release.
It seems you hit an issue here.

If it's stable to reproduce you might be a big help for others to get this issue fixed.
