Maybe, but I still would like to hear more of your opinions, not just the bad stuff only; don’t forget the good and the in between/neutral.
The download section for CD s a little confusing, but the latest version seems to be 8.0.0.4, which was released in December 2010. Yet a portable version of the same browser, 8.0.0.4, was released in February 2010.
The last ‘version 8’ of Google Chrome was released in October 2010 and that browser is now on version 10.
Just because something hasn't been updated doesn't automatically make it insecure.
Agreed, it’s just a little curious.
Which Dragon have you been looking at? ??? It has barely even been out a year! It started with version 1, now it’s at version 9. How can you say it hasn’t been updated?
There won’t be a 64bit version of Dragon out until a 64bit release of Chromium for Windows has been made… I’m pretty sure there are people running the 32bit Dragon just fine on 64bit systems.
Yes, the Website for Comodo Dragon could use some improvements and more details, to better inform us users; I heard they are working on that.
Version 8-something is the latest Version of Comodo Dragon I think, but the latest Google Chrome is Version 9-something I think (according to Google Chrome which I am using as I speak ); do not forget that Comodo Dragon is not based on Google Chrome but uses Chromium (Which Google Chrome is also based off of) and they modify it with a Security/Privacy Emphasis/Focus/whatever the correct word is, and so Comodo Dragon is its own browser that will follow its own development schedule somewhat. (But I could be wrong
)
Maybe Comodo is better with Internet Security Suites, but a lot of Security/Privacy risks are Browser based, so Comodo getting into the Browser Security area is a good thing in my opinion; I say give them time to adjust, Comodo Dragon is a young product with a lot of potential, but do Continue to give Suggestions and Report Bugs/Etc.
You can help the Comodo Team to improve Comodo Dragon, indirectly, by doing what you are doing now; but maybe in slightly Modified Way of course, with a focus on Helping.
Thank you for sharing your opinion, or some of it at least.
No chance of the customer being right then eh? ;D ;D
It would be useful to remove the confusion.

Indeed, version 8.0.0.4, which appears to have been available in the New portable Comodo dragon v 8.0.0.4 form since February 2010. However, the Official r 8.0.0.4 version was released in December 2010.
As for the other chromium based browsers. Chromium was updated to version 10 Beta on February 14 2011, Google Chrome is currently Google Chrome 10.0.648.45 Beta the others are somewhere between 8.x and 9.x.

personally, I use firefox nightly builds as my browser of choice, although I do have portable versions (with the exception of IE9) of others installed for testing, especially with everything that’s changing in the world of rich content, directwrite, hardware acceleration, etc. I never could get on with the Chromium UI and it’s lack of customisation.
I only made a comment in this thread because I went to download CD and was confused by it’s apparent age.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, it was mostly useful
You are welcome and thank you for the extra information.
I knew about the Betas already for Google Chrome, but I was only counting the Stable/Final Version.
I am/was/? using Firefox as my main browser too, but right now I am testing Google Chrome and Comodo Dragon.
I am liking them so far, a few things are missing for me, but they have potential and may be ready as Primary Browsers for me in the Future; Near Future.
There’s always a chance Pete.
You are wrong Dragon will not install on 64 bit operating system. When you try it says Dragon doesn’t support this system. But Firefox doesn’t say this and neither does Opera browser. Both Firefox and Opera are 32 bit browser but they do work on 64 bit but under the 32 bit part of the 64 bit operating system. But Dragon wont install on 64 bit systems. I’ve tried. Any browser that wont install on a 64 bit operating system in my opinion is already outdated piece of software. Because 64 bit is the future not 32 bit.
Did you know there are 64 bit versions of firefox available:
Download - Mozilla x86-64
Official (check folder by version and date)
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/
Suggestion for Comodo CIS to prevent everyone from leaving: delete the FUD.
Back to the topic everybody : " Suggestions for Comodo CIS to prevent everyone from leaving".
Any more suggestion?
One is if somebody promissed something it belongs to keep word always. It prevent unneeded misunderstundings. Greetings.
Yes I know they meaning Mozilla gives there 64 bit browser other names. Firefiox is only a 32 bit browser. And for now there is no 64 bit flash player so only 32 bit browser can use flash player. Adobe says when they are done with the 10 series of flash player it will have the 64 bit version ready to use by windows user. And this still has nothing to do with the fact that Firefox and Opera browsers will install fine on both XP 64 bit and Windows 7 64 bit but COMODO Dragon will not it says it doesn’t support 64 bit operating systems. So Dragon is outdated even if it is new because 64 bit will become the standard just as 32 bit became the standard from 16 bit. And since Dragon for now wont install on 64 bit systems it is a Dinosaur in the beginning of it’s creation.
Actually, firefox is available as a fully fledged 64 bit application. Check the links I posted.
And for now there is no 64 bit flash player
It’s close… Flash Player “Square” (native 64-bit support)
It says Firefox on the zip file but the browser name is Namoroka It is the last stable version of Mozilla 64 bit browser. In fact until there is a 64 bit version of Flash player Mozilla has stop all further development of the 64 bit browser because so many web sights require flash player without a 64 bit version of it there are only a few sights that you can use a 64 bit browser at this time. Anything with any picture on the web sight needs flash player to display the pictures.This also includes Facebook. I’ve done quite a bit of research on this and in my opinion I think Adobe isn’t really behind the 64 bit format and they hope if they delay a 64 bit version of flash player the whole 64 bit push might go away or at least slow way down. And in a way they are right few people even people like myself who owns 64 bit operating systems use 64 bit browsers and the number one reason is that Adobe Flash Player doesn’t work on them and at the rate they are moving through the 10 series of Flash Player it will be another year or so before they get to the 11 series witch Adobe says will be 64 bit compatible. They made this announcement of there plan for there release of a 64 bit version of Flash Player on Windows now over a year ago. I first read it on there forum in January of 2010. And as far as I know the same time table is still in effect as far as the first Adobe Flash Player for windows will be ready for use on windows 64 bit browser.
Namoroka is the code name for the version 3.x release of firefox, just as minefield is the code name for version 4.x. There are versions of the 64 bit build for both versions, although the 3.x builds are less common. There are also nightly 64 bit builds for firefox 4.x
Here’s yesterdays official build for minefield (firefox version 4)
firefox-4.0b12pre.en-US.win64-x86_64.installer.exe
Or if you prefer a no-installer zip build
firefox-4.0b12pre.en-US.win64-x86_64.zip
Just because Flash is not ready, doesn’t mean 64 bit browsers are useless or that development is dead. Also. don’t forget, while Adobe plays catch-up, there’s h.264 and WebM/VP8, unless you’re using an older browser that lacks support.
On a final note, from the Adobe Square (AKA Flash for 64bit browsers) FAQ
Is Flash Player “Square” available for all major operating systems? Yes. Flash Player “Square” is available for all versions of Windows, Mac OS, and Linux platforms supported by Flash Player 10.1. In addition, it includes native support for 64-bit browsers on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.
You can read more at the link I posted earlier.
I’m running Comodo Dragon on a 64 bit OS with no problems.
What is the exact message you get when you try to install CD? Perhaps it’s a compatibility problem with another program.
You are partly right Namoroka is a full release version of there 64 bit browser. There version 4 is still very much Beta. I tried it and the latest beta version of Adobe Flash player wont work with Firefox 64 bit version 4 of there browser but Namoroka witch is a full release and the last one of it is 3.63 witch was release April 10 2010. No new updates to version 3.63 of there 64 bit browser since then. And version 4 witch wont work with Adobe’s 64 bit Flash Player is worthless as far as most sights goes. And before you say it Yes Mozilla did announce that version 3.63 was a full release.
Please forgive my ignorance, but what does FUD stand for?
