Comodo Internet Security 3.12
Why use Comodo Firewall?
Comodo Firewall Pro introduces the next evolution in computer security: Default Deny Protection (DDP™). What is DDP? Most security programs maintain a list of known malware, and use that list to decide which applications and files shouldn’t access a PC. The problem here is obvious. What if the list of malware is missing some entries, or isn’t up to date? DDP fixes this problem to ensure complete security. The firewall references a list of over two million known PC-friendly applications. If a file that is not on this safe-list knocks on your PC’s door, the Firewall immediately alerts you to the possibility of attacking malware. All this occurs before the malware infects your computer. It’s prevention-based security, the only way to keep PCs totally safe.
Firewall is a component of Comodo Internet Security, which comes bundled with Comodo Antivirus. You have the option to only install Firewall if you prefer.
Firewall is also a part of Comodo Internet Security Pro, which gives you the most robust defense and includes other components like Wi-Fi security, live 24/7 expert assistance for numerous computing needs. Try it free for 30 days.

Review:
Comodo has blended its AntiVirus program with Firewall which makes it more secure and most important it is free. Definitely this may disappoint some people who need only AntiVirus or only Firewall but installer could choose to withdraw between either of the components. During installation, you will be also asked about installing Ask.com toolbar and Comodo SafeSearch but be careful not to install these useless components.
Users can switch between AntiVirus and Firewall module and Summary tab which that provides a general overview. Scanning of downloaded files and folders, Startup scan, managing quarantine items definition file updates can be easily updated through a comprehensive list of links.
We can say that AntiVirus module of Comodo Internet Security is not as good as their Firewall. Because you can get better protection if you use any other free AntiVirus programs like Avira, AVG but Comodo firewall is definitely strongest.
