Title: CPF.HLP file not found during recent program 4.7.1074 update install
Post by: Will91 on November 02, 2007, 03:54:50 AM

Hi all:

I right clicked on the "a" ball tonight for a manual check of any program updates.  Apparently build number 4.7.1074 was available and it started downloading.  About half way through, I got a message that Program files/Comodo/Firewall/CPF>HLP file was not found.  I was asked if I wanted to find it myself.  I clicked yes but it was not located under windows explorer.  I clicked cancel and the download finished and installed and then I got the "avast needs to reboot" reminder.

What happened to my HLP file?  Do I need to uninstall AVAST using control panel/uninstall programs and then re-install the whole program or can I find this HLP file somewhere.  I did try the "help" feature of avast and it seems to pull up the help feature including the "contents" and "search" boxes. 

Thanks for any help.

The file has nothing to do with avast! - it seems to be a helpfile for Comodo firewall. Don't know why the message popped up (maybe Comodo was trying to show you something at that moment)... but I suggest to ask Comodo peaple about it ;)
