The Weather Channel Desktop

Comodo Internet Security - CIS AV False Positive/Negative Detection Reporting
#1

Comodo Internet Security 2013 is stopping The Weather Channel Desktop application from installing (and in the case where it was already installed, it blocked and removed the update .exe that allowed the app to update itself)

This is really frustrating because I know that The Weather Channel app is not a virus - yet Comodo will not let me whitelist it anywhere, or set it as trusted. This is a big fail… as the end-user, I should ALWAYS have a choice about what runs on my PC.

The application I’m referring to can be downloaded from the Weather Channel site: http://www.weather.com/services/winapp.html

It’s being instantly blocked, and I’m unable to override it.

Hi DarkDomino,

This is to inform you that false-positive has been fixed.
You can update to AV database Version <15204> of Comodo Internet Security Version<6.0.264710.2708> and confirm it.
