On The Lower Side

COMODO Internet Security Free Version’s firewall slows the system to a great extend. The scan speed is not upto the desired level. It detects too of much false positives.
Comodo’s Defense+ layer of security is annoying,prompting to decide to take certain actions for programs, like changing registry. User have to deal with countless interruptions and risk making a bad decision.

Our Experience

Our experience with Comodo Internet Security Free Version was a disaster. The installation itself is annoying. By default Comodo installs Hopsurf.com’s toolbar, a networking site and asks for changing systems default search engine and your home page. Its so called unique Defense+ security layer is quite annoying too. Its AntSpyware also failed in our tests. Malaware detection was a disaster. The overall detection was too bad on percentage to be listed. It scored 2/12 on our scoring parameters.
