Our Comodo anti-virus software appears to have blown a fuse or something. Approximately 12.5 days ago our internet connection started
From just a couple hours today our traffic showed this. Note the traffic is coming from the antivirus update site for Comodo and nearly all is going to a single computer of ours not all of the ones running Comodo.

It looks like we downloaded over 300GB in the last 12 days (which has exceeded our download quota from the ISP for the month which is how we found out we had a problem).
I did and upgrade on the computer today to the latest update of Comodo and the downloading kept going. I have not restarted the computer yet nor uninstalled and reinstalled. Since I took the computer offline for the night I’ll have to try tomorrow.
Has anyone seen this before? Is it a simple uninstall and reinstall? Is their anyway to prevent it? Is it a bug that needs to be fixed? If this were to have happened on our other ISP connection it would have cost us thousands of dollars in overage charges. As it is we will be speed limited to 512kbps for the next 2.5 weeks.
