Please uninstall previous version before installing it. But while uninstalling, you can choose not to delete the existing safelist databases. So, the previous rules applied by you will remain with new installation.
Thanks for your co-operation in building this product bugs free and stable. Please keep it up.
So far so good, just finished installing and checking a few things. I just noticed one thing that has been present in this beta, and beta versions in the past.
You call this product CAVS (for Comodo Antivrus-Spyware). But in the actual program, there is no indication that this product detects spyware. Maybe this is something to consider in future beta and release versions ;).
If they call it that, users may think that it is an additional product to add to their security, if they named it that then they would have to be sure that the user understands that this is a lone security product and should not be used along with other antivirus products.
The installer didn’t say i’ll reboot with the uninstalling of the earlier beta, did it? Only that reboot is needed. :THNK
Launchpad didn’t detect the beta av and i got no tray icon.
I’m not quite sure that it’s a good idea to use the texts as switches at the main interface! What if a beginner only wants to see the right pane infos and accidently clicks the text?
Memory scanning time is 3,77 file/s only.
Just regarding the naming issue: Under every circumstances let “anti-virus” be part of the name. I guess that is the only term that Average Joe will recognize and understand properly. Average Joe is not so much interested in the distinction of Virus, Worm, Spyware, Trojan, Malware and so on.
He calls everything that harms his PC simply a virus and not malware.
I have installed the new beta on two systems and so far there have been no problems apart from one pc trying to re-install my printer drivers - something that has not happened since I used beta 1.1. Easily solved though and perhaps unrelated to the new installation of CAVS. I will try uninstalling and re-installing CAVS and see if the same happens again on this pc.
I like the new option to select drives for safelist database creation, great for people in a work environment who don’t want to scan servers containing huge numbers of files.
I had a problem with Firefox that seems to have gone now I have installed this beta: maybe my old installation was faulty as the problem did not occur on my second test pc.
Still can’t remove entries from the manage allow/block list after software has been uninstalled but I am sure the development team will solve this minor issue in due time.
Overall a great effort guys, still not quite ready for the world premier but I would be happy to recommend this beta to anyone apart from total novices.
Really great improvement in performance since two previous betas. Thank You very much. (:CLP) This one is really stealth, however I still have HIPS disabled.
Hi Kishork,
Works fine here. But I have two requests for CAVsubmit:
The ability to shorten the list by the size of the files
The ability to select or deselect multiple files maybe by pressing the “shift” button. It is very annoying to check every single file that we do not want to submit
As you know, I’ve continued to have the problem with CavEmlSvr.exe using nearly 100% of resources while trying to run Thunderbird.
I just installed 2.0.8.20 at home, and ran TBird straight away. No problem. Usage was way down. Cavse.exe nearly went ballistic while opening TBird, but I can exclude that, so no problem there.
I was so excited I did not get a screenshot of exact percentage. If you would like one, I’ll reboot and grab it.
Thanks LM. Any one still face high CPU uses by cavemsrv.exe?
Currently cavse.exe may take hish CPU uses while running the application for first time. From second time execution of the same application will be much fasters. Can you please observe this.
