If its an application compatibility problem have you tried the application fixes here?: N/A
Details & exact version of any application (execpt CIS) involved with download link: Pretty much everything, last time it was Dropbox v1.2.30.
Whether you can make the problem happen again, and if so exact steps to make it happen: Just install any software, but to notice the issue pick up complex software that take some time to install even in normal environment.
Any other information (eg your guess regarding the cause, with reasons): This happened last year, maybe even sooner. And since this is happening in both CIS 5.5 and CIS 5.8 and disabling AV fixed the issue, the only possible reason for this behavior is AV database.

WHY WE ASK YOU TO FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES
Bugs/issues can be impossible or very time consuming to fix if developers don’t have enough information to reproduce them. Since CIS is free, development time is limited. So if you want your issue fixed, please use the format below to describe it.
To avoid clutter, issues not described in the format below your post will not be moved to the ‘moderator verified’ issues topic. This means that the developers may not look at it.
Comodo has done great as an antivirus for three years for me - but since 8th August my charting program FTGT see
and Outlook ( running Windows 7)
are running at 1/10 usual speed on FTGT and 1/4 usual speed on Outlook and Browsing.
I am fairly computer literate - have cleaned out temp files , run scans, done defragment, checked with software developers, reinstlled FTGT, done restore to pre- 8th August, tested FTGT on my other computer running Vista Business and had diagnostics done by Dell support on my hardware and had my IT pro’s check my systems.
The only thing that fixes this is switching off the Anitvirus in Comodo.
Ouch - The whole point is to have an Antivirus program !’
Since the cis version 5.5 I noticed the same problem as the line 5.8 beta, Windows 7 32 bit SP1, when it detects new hardware and Windows tries to install the drive, lasts forever when antivirus is turned on (set deafult on stateful), once the antivirus is disable everything goes normal. I hope that this problem be solved in the final version of CIS 5.8. Version 5.5 was a disappointment, I did not expect this to happen, and I see that history repeats on cis 5.8 beta
