I recently installed on my computer running windows 8, Avira freeware Antivirus and Comodo Free Firewall, only the free firewall (without comodo antivirus).
Then I found listed in action center > security, the Comodo Antivirus displayed in this section as being present and turned off .
My question is whether this comodo antivirus listed there it is installed or it is active on the computer, as with all I just installed only the firewall.
From Comodo Free Firewall general settings > configuration, Comodo Internet Security and Proactive Security appears to be inactive, and comodo antivirus which is specified as a spyware protection app, appears in action center to be turned off.
My concern is whether these two antivirus programs (comodo and avira) may conflict with each other.
Please advice me if is any danger in this configuration.
If only at installation you chose Comodo FW, AV Comodo shouldn’t be active.
You can check.
The installed programs - CIS - Press to change.
And you will see what modules at you are established.
I am also using CFW with a free AV. Do not worry, they won’t conflict with each other.
by the way your combo is really powerful with Comodo Firewall :-TU
