OK you guy's, I hope you have this all settled.  I try my best to learn about you alls advise and put it to use. 

This thread about Comodo has just completely lost and confused me.  I am using CFP v3 (free / I guess that constitutes 'Basic').  Now, am I or am I not completely protected by a firewall?  Should I run those leak tests?  I'm not sure I will know what I am looking at when the tests are done unless at the end it just show a green highlighted OK.

Is the issue settled?  Am I protected with good firewall?

I will wait till all of you have the chance to reply.  Thanks, T.

No, there is only one version of CFP and that is the free version.
The issue here is how you choose to install it. During the install you have to choose between Advanced Firewall and Basic Firewall. If you choose the advanced firewall you get the whole protection package, if you choose basic firewall you get just that... a basic firewall.
Even if you have installed CFP in basic firewall mode you can still activate the advanced part later on by enabling Defense+.
