Guys
Here is a strange one and I hope somebody can let me know what is going on. Just allowed CIS to update and rebooted, version is now 4.0.133118.719. Did leak test using the following setup
Config proactive
Sandbox on
D+ paranoid
score 160/340
Config internet security
Sandbox on
D+ paranoid
score 160/340
Config proactive
Sandbox off
D+ paranoid
score 160/340
Config internet security
Sandbox off
D+ paranoid
score 160/340
All the scores are thje same and with the previous version I got 330/340. What the hell happened between the versions??
Alright guys
time to stop screwing with my brain. it isnt real big what I’ve got I want to have normal. I uninstalled CIS latest version and reinstalled and here are the results
could anyone pleeeeeeease explain why yesterday i got 340/340 and today 150/340 without changing anything. i tried rebooting but still the same. tried safe mode, internet security etc etc but still the same. please see below and btw my os is windows 7 not vista.
the Date 6:02:28 PM - 23/02/2010
OS Windows Vista SP0 build 7600
well turned of my laptop last night after getting that dismal result and turned it on this morning. Tried the leak test again and guess what, i got a perfect score again. Perhaps the devs could look at why one day all is ok and the next it isnt and I never touched a single setting.

Hey guys
this is becoming very strange, since my last post when i got a perfect score i turned my laptop off and have just turned it on again after about 3 hours. I tried the leak test again and i got a 170/340.
does any body have any answers. i almost seems like an intermittant fault. also is there anybody having the same problem
shadha :THNK
Well guys its been about 11 hours since my last post and just started my laptop again. just tried leak test again and failed miserably with a 170/340. has anyone got any ideas of what is happening cause i am at a total loss.
Hey Panic you’re a pretty smart cookie, can you shed any light on this.
“COMODO - Proactive Security - This configuration turns CIS into the ultimate protection machine. All possible protections are activated and all critical COM interfaces and files are protected. During the setup, if only Comodo Firewall installation option is selected, the next screen allows users to select this configuration as default CIS configuration. If selected, Firewall is always set to Safe mode. But according to the malware scanning results performed during the setup process, if no malware is found, Defense+ is set to Clean PC mode. Otherwise, the default is Safe mode.”
Ok here is the lastest update. i uninstalled, rebooted, re installed, rebooted and set to proactive, sandbox to disabled, D+ to paranoid, FW to safe and av to stateful and got 340/340.
I will keep you all posted and let you know tomorrow morning if there is another fail.

Well as I said, I would give you an update. After leaving my laptop off for the night and starting it again i did the test again and got a 340/340. All went well after the last uninstall and reinstall. I will keep you posted.
shadha
here is hopefully my last response to this article, after another night all went well this morning and got a perfect score again. Perhaps if others have this type pf problem then they can try what I did.
shadha ;D
Alright here we go again. This time i uninstalled revo uninstaller basic and then installed revo uninstaller pro and that is all I did. Then tried leak test and a complete fail, i bet if i uninsatlled CIS and re installed it again all will be ok. I am going to give this a go again and let you know what happens. I am just wondering if there is some instability that occurs when programs are installed or uninstalled.
shadha
Well it was as i expected. after uninstalling and reinstalleng CIS i once more have a perfect score 340/340. Perhaps the devs can have a look at why CIS is losing its settings internally cause the settings via the gui have not changed.
