    It's fine, and quite capable of doing it's job if used properly.

    I've got it alongside the firewall and it seems OK. Computer hasn't exploded and I'm not getting mystery payments coming out of the bank :)

    I only got Comodo antivirus, Comodo Dragon but not the Firewall. I thought that Comodo Dragon also include the Firewall or do I need to download is separately?

    Beware this is a 201MB file ! if I remember it downloads all their stuff and you click what you want to install - in the past you could just download the firewall about 50MB.

    Absolutely nothing wrong with their security suite - more than capable firewall and Av - never used Dragon though.

    [STRIKE]Dragon is just a Mozzilla derived browser like Firefox, Seamonkey or Iceweasel but with built in security.[/STRIKE]Sorry I'm wrong Dragon is based on Chrome, Icedragon is based on Mozzilla Firefox but both have better built in security.

    I have installed Dragon but don't use it. Also installed Virtual Comodo and Comodo antivirus. I thought that having Comodo antivirus intalled in your computer is enough for protection? I mean do I really need Comodo Firewall as well? I don't want to dowload all this again if it is not possible to download just Comodo Firewall.

    Do you have a firewall running?
