Has anyone tried the new FREE Comodo Antivirus?

It's apparently really new and still in beta.  Has anyone tried it yet?

It has very poor detection rates. You can e.g. check out the latest AV-comparatives test - go to www.av-comparatives.org, click Comparatives and scroll down to "Test of other Anti-virus products February 2007".

The antivirus is a joke (until now). Hope they improve its detection rate and engine.
The firewall rocks. It's a very good.

Only time will tell.  I am new to their firewall so I hope I find it as good as everyone reports.  Thanks.
