    Before Win/7, I was a strong advocate of 3rd party firewalls and Comodo was my pick. It gave good control
    and you could see what was going on.

    Now that I've moved to Win/7 which has a much better default FW, I no longer advocate any 3rd party FB.
    The Windows version is sufficient and there's no conflict or maintenance issues to be configured.

    I am running Win/7. I dont trust their firewall or their a.v.
    seen too many people with viruses who run win7 f.w./defender. course dont know how careless they are either.

    That's correct - - even with a perfect FF and the best A/V, it's still all about the CLICK

    In my opinion, turn Windows defender off & use the default firewall.
    I've used Comodo firewall on my XP Pro but it got removed when I removed something else on my pc that was Comodo.
