Hi,
----------------------------------------Coincidentally I wrote yesterday about my Bad Bad experience with the new Comodo AV that was few weeks ago integrated into the Firewall of them. After nightmarish experience loosing nearly 1000 jobs I kicked it off, permanently. Best you delete the Comodo profile entirely, set it to auto-training and hope for the best. Maybe at the Comodo support forum they have an answer, but generally free passage is needed for: BOINC.exe BOINCmgr.exe BOINC.scr The Science applications - passage for local host comms on IP 127.0.0.1 so BOINC can talk to the Mgr. - passage for port 31416 for same reason. - passage for a random OS assigned port to / from the different BOINC - parts in the range 1025-5000 and a random port somewhere above 50,000 open access through ports 80 and 443 to the outside world sorry, but it's a dog and even after uninstalling and booting still had something in there that needed registry hacking and removal of a deeply embedded driver to get BOINC to work again. In short a dangerous package unless very intimate with it. ciao

Hello Sekerob!
Thanks for your help. At last I uninstall BOINC and delete directory c:\program files\boinc. I delete BOINC applications (boinc.exe, boincmgr.exe and boinc.scr) in COMODO v3.5: "Firewall > Advanced > Network Security Policy". Restart de PC and install BOINC... then... It works  !!!Regards, Xavier Pimienta |
