First off, I want to report a “bug” … Many people, like myself, who are still using the previous version of Comodo CIS 5.0x have no clue that there’s a new version out. I stumbled across a blurb about how Comodo 2013 was out, but my client didn’t even notify me that there were updates available.
Second off, I like the new simplified interface… and the fact that the security systems are simplified now, with only “Enabled” or “Disabled” instead of 20 different levels of protection.
but I have to ask… where are all the options? I literally have no firewall options, no antivirus whitelisting, no nothing except:
Scan
Update
Virtual Kiosk
Quarantine
Task Manager
… There are arrows on the sides, but they don’t do anything.
Am I missing something here? How do I create firewall rules or whatever? I’m always for simplification guys, and Comodo needed it more than any app out there… but this is overboard. There aren’t even basic application options here.
The new version hasn’t yet been pushed to those using version 5.xx. I think they’re trying to fix some of the bugs which have been reported before pushing it out.
Click the green arrow on the upper right and it will flip the window the the settings side.
Seriously though, that needs to be renamed to something like “Options” or “Settings” or I dunno… I figured it was just another link to the Task Manager.
Perhaps they chose “Tasks” since you can also perform tasks as scanning and updating and such, and it’s not only options. =)
Btw, if you right-click things you can chose to add them to the Task Bar, this is the bar at the bottom of the main CIS GUI and the icons there act as shortcuts.
