During the last few weeks I heard a couple of times from the (freeware) firewall Comodo downloadable at

At a first glance this fw looks good from the GUI and it passes all leak test successfully.



Does someone know some dis-advantages of Comodo in comparison to other firewalls e.g.like ZoneAlarm ?

No known problems so far, looks a good alternative to ZoneAlarm.

The majority (all?) of the negative comments are from the personal-firewalls-don't work crowd. Take those comments for what they're worth.

It has its limitations, as I'm sure all software firewalls do.

Personally, from an operational standpoint, it appears to have a much smaller footprint the the ever-growing ZoneAlarm..

It does seem to have a following and is gaining converts from the ZA crowd. To me it still seems a little buggy and is probably overly complex. Also, there is no way to edit a rule on the fly, which really puts me off. But it is probably a pretty decent leak test stopper if that's what you seek.
