Softpedia Editor's Review for COMODO Internet Security Premium
|
Award-winning Comodo Firewall and Antivirus protection for PCs
Written by Elena Opris on November 18th, 2011
COMODO Internet Security Premium is an antivirus system that aims to protect your system, files and folders against any online threats.
The software supports several languages, and you can choose one at the beginning of the installation.
COMODO Internet Security Premium offers to change your DNS servers to COMODO SecureDNS servers (it has a description), and to enable "Cloud Based Behavior Analysis" of unrecognized programs by submitting them to COMODO.
When the program automatically started, we were welcomed by three windows. In one, COMODO looked for updates, another one informed us of how the firewall had detected a new private network that our PC was about to join, and another one which is the software's interface.
Updating takes several minutes, after which COMODO runs an automatic scan on your computer (which takes a really long time, but it's thorough).
The GUI is very eye-catching and simple to follow.
COMODO seems to have a lot of features for each main function, but they are well organized.
The antivirus section lets you run or schedule a scan (a full scan, on critical areas, or a spyware scan), configure the scanner settings, view antivirus events and quarantined items, but also submit suspicious files to COMODO to be further analyzed.
The firewall lets you view firewall events and alerts that were possibly triggered by attacks on the computer, define a new trusted or blocked application, create a set of global firewall rules, and configure various firewall options.
Defense+ has some interesting features, such as running a program in the Sandbox (a "safe haven" for untrusted, restricted, limited or partially limited applications), adding or removing files to and from your local safe executable database, and viewing unrecognized files (which are automatically placed in the Sandbox until further notice).
Surprisingly enough, COMODO uses very little CPU and memory resources while scanning is active. But other system applications run slower.
To sum things up, COMODO Internet Security Premium is a brilliant security software, but that's only our opinion. You have to test it for yourself. And we can't believe it's free.
