I think it does but if you want to be on the secure side download avast!(intstall it) and install only comodo firewall (defense+ will also get installed).
Indeed, the virus aren’t coming “from that link” but it is a press release of avast about infections you can get just visiting sites (not even downloading things…). avast has a Web Shield and a Net Shield which identify and blocks these attacks.
Comodo uses a different approach and has a firewall and Defense+.
I think your sister is protected using CIS.
I am surprised we haven’t seen a bypass of the sandbox. Yes, it can drop files in non protected areas but it will not survive reboot; and is therefor proven it did not damage/intrude on your system.
Comodo’s AV blocks dangers website like web shield does (more or less). In case you necessary need web shield then keep avast! (i assume you use avast! free) and install comodo firewall. You don’t need the webb-shield in my view; CIS will protection from any malware!
web shiled blocking viruses and malware while u browsing sites and if u try to open any site having viruses or malware then it blocks ur network and it stops that site to open.
thank u. i was confused about web sheild and if free comodo CIS is protecting like web sheild then comodo is better than avast.so i think i not need avast.
