Google Chrome 10.0.648.127 and the gcswf32.dll interacts as shown in the attached screenshot.
The problem is Comodo Defence+ alerts for these events and if I click Allow it blocks Chrome window and also the Comodo GUI.
I’m using Comodo Firewall, version 5.3.181415.1237, with Sandbox disabled, with both Defence+ and Firewall on Safe Mode.
My OS is: Windows 7 Home Premium x86 and I am also running Avira AntiVir Personal 10.
This takes many minutes, and it happens sometimes to other apps I want to run. Can you fix or indicate a solution?
We would very much appreciate it if you would edit your first post to create an issue report in line with the bug forum guidelines and format here. You can copy and paste the format from this topic.
To understand the reasons why we ask you to follow these guidelines please see below.
WHY WE ASK YOU TO FOLLOW THESE GUIDELINES
Bugs/issues can be impossible or very time consuming to fix if developers don’t have enough information to reproduce them. Since CIS is free, development time is limited. So if you want your issue fixed, please use the format below to describe it.
To avoid clutter, issues not described in the format below your post will not be moved to the ‘moderator verified’ issues topic. This means that the developers may not look at it.
Example of bug report in the correct format below.
Thank you

Unfortunately we do need this issue to be reported in the full right format, and with all the information we have asked for, if we are to forward it to verified issues.
For the moment I am going to move it to the Orphaned/Resolved child board. If you do edit your post to create a complete issue report in standard format, and PM an active mod, we will of course consider moving it to verified reports.
The devs only look at the Orphaned/Resolved board if they have time, so please do edit the post and PM an active mod if you want it fixed.
