Greetings!
Can you please tell me what version of CFP you’re using so I can move it to the correct forum?

This has happened to me, and if it’s the same thing, then CFP actually is starting, but the icon isn’t showing in the task manager.
I’ve noticed that upon startup, CFP is running right from the beginning, but the icon only appears in the task manager very late. And on one occasion, the icon didn’t appear at all, and because of that, I could not bring up CFP. Suffice to say, because task manager can’t kill it, I had to use IceSword to kill both processes and then restart it.
In the scheme of things, my startup order looks like this:
rdpclipRDP Clip Monitor Microsoft Corporation c:\windows\system32\rdpclip.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exeUserinit Logon Application Microsoft Corporation c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe
explorer.exeWindows Explorer Microsoft Corporation c:\windows\explorer.exe

ATICCC c:\program files\ati technologies\ati.ace\clistart.exe
AVG7_CCAVG Control Center GRISOFT, s.r.o. c:\program files\grisoft\avg7\avgcc.exe
COMODO Firewall ProCOMODO Firewall Pro COMODO c:\program files\comodo\firewall\cfp.exe
And then a bunch of other programs run. I’m assuming cfp is what starts cmdagent.exe
Version is 3.0.13.268, and Comodo still crashes when you select any (as far as I can tell) of the “What do these settings do?” links.
Hi, I am using v 2.4, which I prefer to the newer version.
When I do a leak test with v2.4 I get a chance to ‘deny’, when I used newer version the leak tester was able to penetrate the firewall because I was given the chance to ‘accept’ or ‘deny’.
Thanks
Ok, take a look at these:

Many thanks, I created a shortcut for exe file and added to ‘Start menu’.
Works ok now - Excellent forum - thanks.
Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
I see the Name “COMODO Firewall Pro” and the data value is set to run “C:\Program Files\Comodo\Firewall\cfp.exe” -s
Is the “-s” the same thing as “-background?”
i just downloaded Comodo Firewall Pro and mine starts up automaticly has there been a update or something when this thread was posted?
I think the problem is, at least in my case, is that it does start up, but it does not show an icon. So, while it is running in the background, you cannot actually bring it up.
