taskhostw.exe is trying to change the current settings of your browser

I am using CIS Firewall 10.0.1.6294 on Windows 10 Home 64 bit Fall Creators Update (16299.19)

After I’ve been on the Internet for a while, I get a pop-up titled “COMODO Browser Protection” stating “taskhostw.exe is trying to change the current settings of your browser” (which is Firefox). Choices are ‘Keep browser settings’ and ‘Change browser settings’. I always pick Keep. Pop-up goes away. If I’m busy on the PC then it usually doesn’t return but if I’m away from the PC or it’s been idle for while then the pop-up returns after a few minutes.

I already performed a system scan with Avast antivirus and Malwarebytes and nothing was found.

This started since I upgraded Windows 10 from “Creators Update” to “Fall Creators Update”. Before “Fall Creators Update” I never experienced this issue.

Any help would be much appreciated
