just throwing are idea out there
i don't how feasible and practical it would be for Comodo

hi melih
how about all of your excellent products for other OSes other than just Windows?

Linux -
        i know there are so many distros out there, but how about the popular ones "ubuntu" , "opensuse" , etc.

Apple OS X -
        there is not much outthere for this popular and getting extremely popular now OS in terms of online security

i recently got into Linux
i currently have Ubuntu 8.04 "gnome, kde4, xfce"     and       OpenSuse 11.0 "gnome, kde4"    installed as triple boot on previously just a windows xp machine
also recently i "broke" windows xp on my mom's desktop, could not fix it, so have to reboot it, hopefully that will work, but in a meantime i installed Ubuntu for her, and she likes using it
i have also been wanting to purchase Apple computer and will actually get one by next year

point being people are using these OSes, and i hear and read on web that these OSes are very secure,
yeah, for now,
but they are getting popular, and they are bound to get malware, viruses, keyloggers, all sorts of nasties
unless people would just stop doing that, but i am sure attacks will continue to happen
so users of other OSes also need protection
and since Comodo products are good, excuse me, i apologize, "comodo products are excellent" at providing online security, i was hoping for comodo to jump in and make security products available for Linux and Apple OS X

granted, i don't really know much about this kind of stuff, may be there are so few viruses, worms, malware for Linux/OS X that it would be not feasible to make anti-products for them
but
you believe in prevention, zero day protection
so can do firewall, av, anti-malware....

again just throwing the idea out there
did not realize this post became so long
guess was just bored
thanks for listening

I like your idea. Specially Linux. Linux and CFP/CIS would make a great security setup. Just a thought...

For Linux it would be great to see full-featured HIPS (Defense+) and Firewall with outbound protection

edit: it may be better to develop gui for SELinux and AppArmor (both are oss) Huh

I hope Melih reserves some Developers for Linux & Apple OS's, and maybe Win 2000, etc. I like the ideas, If Comodo provides Linux & Apple Support... Comodo will really have TRUST go up... PROFIT go up... and MARKET share go up...

Hope so... Smiley
