Here is the third BETA of CIS 5.8. It is probably the last BETA or RC.
What’s new in 5.8.206694.2075?
FIXED! Antivirus updates consumes huge memory FIXED! Antivirus can crash on bad disk sectors FIXED! HIPS can be bypassed by certain malware by exploiting trusted applications FIXED! HIPS doesn’t catch certain screen capturing techniques FIXED! HIPS doesn’t catch windows service modifications
There are many other small fixes in this release.
What needs to be tested?
The most important features of this BETA are related to HIPS and AV. So the most valuable bugs are the REPRODUCIBLE bugs which are related to system stability issues, compatibility issues, and crashes.
You are more than welcome to test all other features as well. Please if you observe BSODs, give us the memory dumps.
Only annoying thing so far was Geekbuddy and LivePC being installed as well, do not remember seeing option to not install them.
Have since uninstalled Geekbuddy, as for LivePC not sure if it can be uninstalled. I hope Comodo will add opt-in to these in future to installer if theres not one as I did not see an option
Apart from this latest is awesome, AV update was fastest yet, downloaded and applied like a whippet on steriods ;D
Thanks languy99, through I never saw a option for custom, but could have been my eyes I guess, maybe was to excited to install ;D ;D ;D
I’m really loving the circular progress meter during installation, I hope this stays as its refreshing and not boring compared to old boring progress bars :-TU :-TU :-TU
A page “Fault” is poorly named… Every time a process looks for some data in ram, if its not there this is called a “Page Fault”. Windows then loads the page into RAM from your hard drive. It isnt an error at all. Its neccessary, theres no way u can load ur whole hard drive into ram. then u would never get a “page fault”.
Update went smoothly here. The update still add a Weekly Scan to my empty Scheduled Scans list! Annoying, but I can deal with it. It would be nice NOT to have to go through all of my settings every time I update just to be sure that nothing has been changed.
@wasgij6: The maximium page faults I had was 219 during the first full scan, but will do more scans and see if I get same issue!
@ErichJH…I can see the custom install option in your screenshot…lol…thanks for posting the screenshots for everyone, now I feel like idiot for missing the option ;D ;D ;D
