Hi,
i was looking for a firewall to stop installed programs to access the internet.
I once had Zon Alarm installed. There everytime a program tries to access the internet, you get a notification and can then allow or deny the request.
So I decided to try Comodo Firewall.
First off, when downloading the isntaller you can only install the complete suite with Antivirus. I already have Avast installed. When I deactivate the COmodo Antivirus the tra icon turns red as if the whole suite is deactivated.
Then I cannot find an option to ask programs for permission to access the web.
You can block all traffic. Then no program can access the internet.
However, when I start a program I don’t get a message where I can allow access for this program.
I have the option “Do not show popup alerts” disabled.
Can I set Comodo Firewall to ask me if I want to allow a program accessing the web?
And can I just install the firewall?
