SiteAdvisor by McAfee gave CIS a “yellow” rating because it contacted several web servers.
I’d like to know if the “web server contact” is true or not for CFP with Defense+, only.

McAfee SiteAdvisor does give comodo.com a green rating, but it checked a RC version of CIS and assigned it with a yellow label (warning) for contacting the web servers:
www.comodo.com
static.ask.com
a1230.b.akamai.net
wzpo.ask.com
www170.mywebsearch.com
(Note that this yellow label has been on the Firewall since version 3 something, and I was getting uncomfortable using Comodo)
The link of the McAfee site report is http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/comodo.com?ref=safe&client_ver=FF_26.6_6275&locale=en-US&premium=false&client_type=FF&aff_id=0 (Although I’m unsure if it will work on computers w/o the SiteAdvisor extension.)
Hey Spider… Comodo is safe. Nothing to worry about
So you’re saying these ratings are false, then?
(If so I’ll post to the SiteAdvisor homepage, the unofficial forum)
I think what it’s detecting is comodo’s tool bar (Which is totally optional!!)
But yes, If you could please report that it would be much appreciated
I would, but if it is detecting the tool bar and Comodo Safe Search (and it’s not false), then I can’t really report anything (because it would be true). I’ll make a comment, but still… are you sure Comodo doesn’t contact any ports on its own?
Ummm…okay. If SiteAdvisor is worried about CIS having a toolbar, then what the h–l are they doing to people trying to install SiteAdvisor? See my earlier post on this.
As I remember my last (and final) install of SiteAdvisor I chose the do not install option for the Yahoo! Toolbar, and it installed itself anyway. Maybe SA should paint its own site with a red rating.
