I use the manual mode of the firewall,
“sometimes” if I trust the internet access for an exe file… when the file is modified Comodo doesn’t notify me that the file was modified and give it full Internet access automatically using the rule created for the original version.
The bug/issue
- What you did: Update some executable files
- What actually happened or you actually saw: The firewall use the rules created for the original file
- What you expected to happen or see: A modified file notification and a trust connection request
- How you tried to fix it & what happened: The problems is casual and the file was secure however this behavior compromise the firewall reliability
- If its an application compatibility problem have you tried the application fixes here?: Isn’t compatibility problem
- Details & exact version of any application (execpt CIS) involved with download link:
- Whether you can make the problem happen again, and if so exact steps to make it happen: The problem is casual doesn’t happens every time
- Any other information (eg your guess regarding the cause, with reasons): I think is related with the file modification analysis policy
