I guess the philosophy of PC Tools is "if we ignore them, they will go away". :mad:

They were probably wondering the same thing about you when you decided to read it ten days later when nothing new added to the discussion, just to make a useless comment.

But if Threatfire has HIPS (behavior blocking) then wouldn't it would provide the missing protection not found in the firewall. We need an answer from one of the developers. This is still sad news...

Ok nevermind. I found it in the advanced profile settings section. I was just expecting it to be a tab at the top next to Port Override and Trusted IP List.

The firewall does not have an actual "HIPS"? I wasn't even aware of any enhanced verification. I thought it was included in the "enhanced security permissions" which allows you to set to HIGH even...

I see application rules, but no global rules.

I see trusted IP list, but no Blocked IP list and no way to block by hostname, either.

What is the difference Enhanced Security Verification, and Threatfire's HIPS?

Comodo's CIS package IS free. You only pay for the premium version to have full support and probably rights to use it in a business.

How is Threatfire a sandbox or a virtual browser? PC Tools needs to explore these options along with cloud based antivirus. They are falling behind the times and will never excel in PC security if...

PC TOOLS needs to look into things like sandboxing, viritual browsing, and REAL host intrusion protection if they want to succeed.

And for gods sake stop putting antivirus and antispyware into...

Accolades to PC Tools for jumping on the bandwagon. They say they care so much about our PCs being safe that they can no longer offer a free version? Good riddance and you won't see me shedding a...

What purpose does the activity window serve (other than to see what is going on but not able to do anything about it) if it does not allow the user to break or block a connection? It gives alot of...

It would be nice to have the ability to terminate an application from within the activity window. If you didn't want a program to connect to the internet you could choose Terminate this Application

9 months is a looooong time so I was wondering if the next update will be a new major version 7 or will the support of version 6 continue? :confused:

You need to elaborate on this some more because when the profile is set to "public", the local area network is ticked as trusted in the "Trusted IP List". Now, wouldn't the Local Area Network be...

When a user is alerted to a program wanting to connect to the internet and clicks "block" it doesn't show up in the firewall logs. I think you should add a section to the log that tells user what...

Thanks, I checked it out but I don't see the point of running a crippled program through Google.

Windows 7 action center reports that the antivirus is turned off even though it's installed and...

I was considering the standalone version of Spyware Doctor because of the price difference, but finding it in stores is almost impossible. I don't buy software online--I don't want my personal...

From what I understand, only the paid-for antivirus is being discontinued. That was inevitable...


It's all smoke and mirrors to me. Is the free version being discontinued or not?


...While...

Internet Security Suite has been released awhile ago with 64 bit compatibility and yet no 64 bit stand alone antivirus is available. :confused:

Now how about the Iobit Security 360 -Advanced Protection. Would this interfere with Threatfire?

Sometimes this alert will popup and tell me than an unknown program is trying to use another program to connect to the internet, but no other information is given. It doesn't say what the name or the...

thank you for clearing all of this up. As of right now I see no point in buying the Internet Security, since the firewall and threatfire are free albeit standalone.

I hear a lot of unhappy...

Can you tell me if Spyware Doctor is going to be replaced with Internet Security or Spyware Doctor with Antivirus.

I cannot find a standalone copy of good-old Spyware doctor anywhere in the...

I wonder though if this is actually due to the behavior blocker component within Spyware doctor-- a vital part of the suite no doubt.

I would rather have the (paid for) Spyware doctor with...
