Vista - Uninstall Comodo Pro Firewall

Can anyone help me with uninstalling Comodo completely? I have uninstalled using windows and everything seemed ok. However, using Security Center, Comodo is still showing as installed. Have tried using Revo Uninstaller and also a registry cleaned. Have also tried Scans with Spybot and Adware but it still sits there in an 'on' state. I have tried to reinstall Comodo but get the message that 'Comodo is already installed and would I like to uninstall now'.When I click ok to uninstall the box disappears but nothing else happens. So it appears that I am stuck with this firewall but there is no way to access it as the only reference to it is via Security Center. The next step is throwing the window......can someone please assist in this. Not too technically minded so worried about any remedies involving regedit or cmd !

How do I completely uninstall CFP 3? [Faster]

I have tried the CFP 3 Registry+File Cleaner with no success. All it did was kill the internet connection and i had to use 'system restore' so looking at other option !

Did you try the long way? Full Removal of Comodo Firewall Pro 3 with SafeSurf Toolbar (If Regular Uninstall Method Fails)
There are other things to do, but I would make sure to follow the rules.

Hello Stefano, just a silly thought.

Have you tried to re-enable the built in "Windows Fire Wall" to see if that will disable CFP?

Keep us informed!

Helo Bare Foot Kid,
Yes I have re-enabled Windows Firewall but now system shows both running so I have diabled it again. Only a novice so worried about the Full Removal of Comodo Firewall Pro 3 with SafeSurf Toolbar (If Regular Uninstall Method Fails)
Seems a little difficult for me. I did download CFP 3 Registry+File Cleaner with no success. At the moment I am unable to download any other reg cleaners etc as whenever I try I get the message 'unable to connect to web server' which I'm thinking is caused by Comodo blocking the connection ??

Hi Steve,

To see if Comodo is blocking the program from connecting and to unblock it:

• Right click on the Comodo tray icon and click on Open.
• Click on the Firewall button at the top.
• Click on the Advanced button to the left.
• Click on the Network Security Policy link.
• Look for anything with a red X in a cricle that is set to be blocked to see if it is that program you want not to be blocked.
  • If it is, then click on it to highlight it, and click the Edit button to the right.
  • Change the Action to allow and click Apply.
  • Repeat for any other entries for that program you find.
• Click Apply .

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hi Brink,
The problem is that I have uninstalled comodo but it still shows as 'on' in security centre even though it shows as uinstalled.There aer still register residues but no icon in the system tray. I have tried a search for comodo but windows can't find it even though its sat in the registry keys. Don't know where to go from here.

Steve,

Have you already looked in Services and made sure that the COMODO Firewall Pro Helper Service is stopped and disbled if listed?

When you uninstalled COMODO from Programs and Features, did you turn it off and disabled it first?

When you searched the registry, did you use the Edit and Find/Find Next option while using Comodo to search for and right click on and Delete all entries found?

Going in the "Registry" isn't too difficult; but you may want to have a look to see,
once you get there you don't have to do 'anything'.



Keep us informed!
