    Comodo firewall
    « on: January 12, 2008, 01:54:11 PM »
    so i want to install comodo firewall for my computer it is xp professional 32
    so i downloaded the file from the main site and opened up the thing it started the install process, asked me to accept the licsence, and then it asked me where to install it too: i chose the default and clicked next. the firewall installer disapears from my screen. i go "ok" and wait for about 5 min... nothing happened. so i try again, this time i try a diferent area to install it to, it disapears i wait five min, nothing happens again
    i restart the computer and try it again you guessed it nothing happens

    does anyone have any ideas for me or a different place to downlaod the thing from? thanks much

          Do you have a filter installed?
          What type of connection is this?
          Are you the administrator?
