It is the first line of defense, and prevents malware before it has the change to even enter your system. You can read more about this here (quite informative actually ;) ): http://www.melih.com/2007/12/04/detection-vs-prevention-your-first-line-of-defense/EDT I: I am using CFP with defense+ and would recommend using it.Shouldn't this topic has been in software chat since it is about software?EDIT II: You should only use one HIPS software at a time (just like with AVs), kaspersky is also using HIPS however the HIPS in CFP is way better, so choose the best one and disable the rest ;).Another addition to the security software is the soon to be released CAVS3 (Comodo anti virus/spyware) and CIS (comodo Internet Security) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonon Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 The reason I think defense+ shouldn't be used because it's too annoying with allot of (IMO) annoying (small) popups. Therefore it's better to use threatfire.@LoKzIf you don't like the marsu fix, why don't you use another one.
