cmdagent.exe uses a lot of CPU

Help for v2
#1

Hi all just installed comodo the latest version and have a slight problem with it.

when i start my pc up the firwall is fine hardly any cpu usage but after about 15mins the cpu is always at 20% and the casue is cmdagent.exe i know this is part of comodo firewall.

when i close cpf.exe which is the main firwall program the cmdagent.exe which still stays in my task manager goes to 0% cpu it only jumps to 20% when the firewall is enabled.

now if i go to the main GUI of comodo firewall and turn off application monitor cmdagent.exe goes to 0% cpu and if i turn back on application monitor cmdagent.exe goes back up to 20%

is there a bug in this version of the firewall as i might havr to take this off as i have not had anyproblems with my other firewall i wanted this one becasue it was the best but it just seems to eat up to much cpu

i would not care but when the computer first starts up its ok for the first 15min and the only programs i opend was ie7 and internet download acc

so can anyone help is there going to be a fix for this ??? or can anyone tell me whast going on thanks

new here nice to meet you all

Well, if you had actually followed through the above links you’ll see that with Monitor Dll Injections disabled, it works 90% of the time. As for version 3 alpha, I haven’t seen any reports of cmdagent.exe & cpu issues. So far only some Vista users experience cpu issues.

If you want to monitor v3 then look at this: https://forums.comodo.com/comodo_firewall/comodo_firewall_3_windows_vista_and_x64_compatibility_current_release_date-t6927.0.html
