@Alan|Cvette: you can also use pc tools firewall as a firewall alternative to comodo. It has performed very well in matousec Proactive Security Challenge.
One thing that most people advise (which I have read in Forums about Threat Fire) is that you should not register it in the Security Center. I think there is an option to do that since it will get identified as an Anti Spyware and that may create conflicts. Don't know if it is true. But I just followed it. I did use threat fire before but I decided against it. It was causing my browsers to have this delay in loading websites. I do understand it since Avast already scans websites, and you have threat fire coming also to scan any possible attacks based on behavior. I just find it too cumbersome. But don't get me wrong. I saw the reviews of Threat Fire and they are very good, even stellar.As for Comodo, it made my PC freeze during one of Avast's updates. Since then, I threw it out of the Window. Their software is also bloated for just a Firewall. I use Online Armor. But I heard, Outpost Free and PC Tools Firewall Plus also works well with Avast.
