NEED SUGGESTION re: Comodo PF (Vista)

i do system (factory) restore for my laptop.

is it better to install first COMODO Firewall (vista) or install first all the applications and driver update for my laptop?

Umm you do realise that the version of Comodo Firewall released today is an “ALPHA” version don’t you??
It is NOT meant for people to put it on the machines they work with all the time, as there is a good chance that it will break things…

If on the other-hand you know what you are doing, or your laptop is a type of test machine, then by all means install it, but I just thought I would warn you…

As for your question, I would suggest that you install everything you normally have on your computer and then install the firewall, the reason for this, is that the firewall has a defense+ option in it which will ask you every time you try to change something on your machine (software), so unless you like a LOT of warnings popping up, put everything you want on it before you install the firewall…

Hope this is of some help…
