Comodo Firewall Rules Discarded

Hello everybody.

I’m using CFP 2.4, and I notice that it seems to discard rules.

On today, while setting rules for emule, I saw this very well.

I use an additional application bar (Stardock Objectdock) that shows running applications, too.

I set tcp and udp rules for emule, than I launched emule via objectbar: cfp asked me to allow or deny a dns packet from emule to objectdoc, I checked “remember this answer” and clicked allow. Suddenly I opened again emule rules and I noticed they were be overwritten when I clicked on allow and remember in the alert popup. What’s going on?

Backing to objectdoc, firewall shows a lot of alerts from and to this process, always for dns(53) packet. I tryed to set objectdock as trusted application, to set rules that opened all ports and addresses for the program, but alerts still appear anytime I start an application. How can I solve this issue?

Finally, sometimes CFP loads the cpu to 100% without a reason, I have to shut it down and reload. Can I solve this problem, too?

I tryed to install CFP 3 beta for Win XP, a complete disaster…

Really many thanks!

yes, i think there are lot problems with rules.
i have the same problems.

100% of cpu usage. that has with logging to do.
there is a good thread which describes the problem and offers a solution
just search for cpf.exe 100% cpu usage…

Greetings!

Does it work if you don’t launch eMulte thru Stardock?
Have you created a network rule for eMule? it should look like this:

eMule Network control rules

1 set eMule use TCP Port:4662,UDP Port:4672 in eMule
2 CPF–>Network Monitor Add 2 rules

ALLOW TCP IN FROM IP [Any] TO IP [Any] WHERE SOURCE PORT IS [Any] AND DESTINATION PORT IS 4662

ALLOW UDP IN FROM IP [Any] TO IP [Any] WHERE SOURCE PORT IS [Any] AND DESTINATION PORT IS 4672

You can change Any to your static ip like 192.168.1.2

Remember to put the rules at the top of the network rules.
