Comodo wants to close

Help for v2
#1

Hi all!
Have just installed the personal firewall. Seems to be working fine. BUT every few minutes it tells me it wants to close and I must press ‘yes’ if it is upgrading, etc, or ‘no’ if it isn’t. This is getting bothersome and can’t find a way around it. Help please?

Hi and welcome,

Something could be trying to close CPF. Worst case could be a trojan or other malware - have you scanned for viruses etc? Try an online scan as well as your existing protection to help make sure.

Are you using the beta / the stable version 2.2.0.11?

Can you give some specs. of your computer and other software running?

Thanks,
Mike

Yes I agree. Something is trying to close Comodo Personal Firewall! Make sure you dont have any trojan/vius.

OK, I’ve done as you suggested. I ran my own anti-virus (Avast! 4) and followed that with an online virus chacker (Kaspersky). I also ran the usual Ad-Aware, Spybot, and SpywareBlaster progs, and I have Regrun running in the background. My 'puter is as clean as I can make it.
I re-installed the software - having uninstalled my previous firewall, Kerio, completely - and I’m still getting the notice every 3 minutes “Comodo Personal Firewall is going to close…” etc.

My OS is Windows XP SP2 and I have acres of RAM and HD space, well beyond the programs requirements. The only other programs I have running apart from those I’ve mentioned is Tune-Up memory optimiser, ASUSprobe, and Xclock

The Comodo version number is 2.2.0.11 downloaded from the official site.

Consider an online scan by the pc-cillin. For the time being is the most accurate online scanner :wink:
