1)An option where we are allow to disable the automatic updates for both the Comodo Launch Pad and the firewall. I really perfer updating my programs manually.

Status: Implemented since v.2.0.0.1
2)Upon install automatically disable Windows Firewall

Status: Implemented since 2.0.0.1
3)Many software has some kind of Syste Crash / memory dump reporting. I found this useful when the system crashes and probably it was due to the app.
And This is most useful for the software developer.
So. Would suggest an implementation of such feature

4)(1) Disabling the LaunchPad icon and simply having one system tray icon per Comodo Application (firewall, antivirus etc…)
(2) Having a “Super LaunchPad” that is aware of what Comodo software is running, and alters its system tray icon to show relevant information for all Comodo software… e.g. it would change to an in/out bargraph to display data bandwidth for the firewall, it would perhaps flash when antivirus is performing a scan… Turn red when antivirus detects malware… I’m sure the delevopers and other users out there could think of other uses too

5)For me a feature (present in version 1) needs to be added to your next release : the possibility to specify local port (or a range) in the rule creation

6)Ability to backup any customized settings such as rules, and other various config settings.

7)There was a nice feature at the Sygate Personal Firewall, it shows the actual traffic in a diagramm. This is very usefull to see what traffic it is at the moment. Maybe it’s possible to ad such a diagramm.

8)My only wish is to be able to use the fire wall on both our desktops, without having to Log out each time. My dear hubby sometimes forgets to log me off before he signs in… Then he is unprotected as he surfs around the net. I know it warns him, but he does sometimes just ignore the warnings…
Status:Pending
9)I would like to see Comodo Personal Firewall have like a feature for people who do online gaming. That way it shows all the IP’s of people who are connected with the user and possibly block them if there is a problem!

10)Interface fix. Not possible to resize the Details window while in LOGS. The details window is very small. It would be great if I could double click on a log entry and have it open up in a “pop-up” box, as entries do in Windows log entries.
Or have the ability to resize the details window. Also, ability to copy from the log without having to export to html or other type of formats.

11)An option on the advanced settings to check the programs that have similar function with i-Valt (with the possibility to be activated or deactivated depending on the users needs) .

12)An option to reset all Comodo Firewall settings back to install default would be good, including clearing the component and application monitor lists which have to be cleared manually now

13)I would like to see a firewall specific tray icon (that lets us know firewall is running) instead of the Launch Pad
Requested by: JimmyD May 06, 2006, 06:24:31 am

14)And as I said in previous posts. that the CPF tray icon have integrated some traffic display icon, like Zone Alarm does or other similar programs do

15)Nice to see cookie and script and referrer control . That would be nice

16)I was having a play around with Comodo Backup and found the “Protect configuration with password” option.
How come this isn’t in CPF? What’s the value in a security product that can be disabled, modified from a designated config or turned off?
Requested by: Panic: May 08, 2006, 11:31:04 pm

17)Security software must also have security to prevent the program to be closed, like a pasword protection or something, that denies stoping CPF.exe, cmdagent.exe etc.

18)think there should be a bandwith monitor added into it that uses bars to represent the speed of the data that is being sent/received

19)Nice thought. But personally I would like, also to, have an option to choose between:
- a tray icon
- a trasparent small window
- an optional bar like the one of windows media player
- not shown at all (to let users that don’t like it to disable it)
I hate see more and more icons on system tray

20)I would like to see 3 features like those of Outpost firewall: 1) HTTPLog, 2) Blockpost and 3) PC Flank ‘WhoEasy’ plugins. I like them a lot

21)Please include a traffic log. with a whois function similar to sygates

22)Ability to work with Fast User Switching. This is a must for most home PC’s

23)I would like a button in aplication monitor menu, that could remove all uninstalled programs from the list… well if thats possible.
I try a lot of programs and after a month the cpf aplication monitor menu is full of software that I dont have installed anymore. And it is quite troublesome and annoying to manualy removing the entries, because the list scrolls up everytime I remove an enty (or entries).

24)There’s a new posting that requested being able to export all CPF settings to an external file, to enable faster setup if reinstallation was required - good idea! Thinking further, one of the common problems with home LANs is making sure that the security settings on each and every PC are adequate and consistent.
How about adding the ability to distribute CPF config rules and changes from a “master” to other CPF installations on the home lan upon request? Hand in hand with this is the need to add password protection to the “master” (and to the application in general). This could also be added to CAV, as a means of ensuring that the AV databases are up to date consistently across the LAN, and also would reduce outbound traffic and lower the load on your servers.
When I first thought of this, I did think that it may compicate things too much, but it doesn’t have to. The sequence could be as simple as
- remote workstation “pings” master
- if not exist, revert to usual update schedule and mechanism
- if exist, send data containing AV and FW file versions
- if master has higher versions, send updates to remote
- remote intergrates updates
- if master has no higher versions, revert to usual update schedule and mechanism
- end
Initial traffic could be as low as a dozen packets, so I don’t think it would impact throughput seriously. This method sort of places a reliance on the master being available, but is overcome by having the remote reverting to the conventional update method. This could be invoked either on startup or as a preliminary step in the conventional update process, again relieving the load on your servers.

25)Another idea following on from my prior posts - in the case of an infection getting inside the LAN, when the master updates, the FW should stop ALL other traffic for the duration of the update - just in case the traffic is being caused by an infection the update is designed to kill.

26)I would like to see the ability to define “groups” of IP addresses or URL’s and then be able to define Application xyz has access to this group or these groups.
See https://forums.comodo.com/index.php/topic,245.0.html
for further discussion.

28)1. The ability that CPF remembers the redimension of the columns of Network Monitor, Application Monitor,etc.
(I think that this has been solved in the version 2.1.0.1. Please correct me if I am wrong)
Status:
2. The ability to copy the description, from the description window which stands in the lower space of the “Network monitor” panel. It would simplify the process of reporting those settings at the forum and for giving quick support. I think that its a great Idea and it can be very usufull if this option is expanded also at the details windows of the other panels

29)1) Something different in the Tray Icon area. I like having a firewall Icon I can double click on to open the firewall program and not having to click multiple buttons or links to get the firewall opened.
-
Under “Activity / Connections” have one line for each item.
An example:
YahooMessenger.exe has 8 things listed for connections. It would be nice if this was listed just once with a PLUS Sign next to it that I could click to see all the connections that Program has.

30)It would be good to see the number of “Blocked Incoming Traffic” events like ZoneAlarm and McAfee do.
The other thing is that AOL 9 doesn’t Detect that there is a Firewall installed but I’m currently inquiring with them about that one…
