Melih Abdulhayoğlu: genius, madman, or just purporting another cloud scanner?

Wow... Really? This is becoming really dirty.  
I think some of us need to relax a bit about this all DACS & Comodo situation... I know it's hard. I used to have Comodo Firewall but already get rid of it. So my suggestion for now, it's relax and let Comodo go on with DACS, etc.
The moment will arrive eventually...

Sorry Logos,
Banning for not agreeing with someone's (forums) philosophy isn't a good idea.
It would put us in the same class.
If the site where actually dangerous and visiting it would cause a security risk, then by all means,
banning would be justified but, that's not the case.
On a personal basis, we all choose where we post and what we avoid and that's the way it should be.
avast!'s job is to keep us away from sites that infect our computer and it's doing an excellent job.

Bob Comodo does the same thing to keep us away from sites that infect our computer that is why they offer free Comodo Secure DNS in their free version it call 'Comodo Premium', and Bob I've read your trolls at Comodo forum sound like you're starting a war over there you better cool off for a while Bob otherwise you'll have a heart attack

Didn't realize that you where one of their fan boys
Also didn't realize that speaking the truth is considered trolling
Almost sounds like Melih has you brainwashed too.

I don't agree with you Bob, I adopted this intolerant attitude since they started to call all AV companies criminal protectors (see abdulah's blog post ) while they don't mind using these same AV's engines in their bloody DACS thing. I'm actually calling for a Comodo boycott, more will follow on Twitter and elsewhere. One can't allow a security software company treating all others like crap while again, using their work.

[bob3160]

Logos,
I don't disagree with you in your assessment of their business practices.
Or their scruples. 
my point is simply that the website itself poses no danger to your computer and therefore
shouldn't be blocked.
That's not the job of your antivirus program.

[Hermite15]

since they will be using other AVs technologies - just on P2P mode according to Ewen (comodo mod), with no centralized server - but with CIS using DACS results according to Abdulah'

http://forums.comodo.com/news-announcements-feedback-cis/whats-dacs-and-what-does-it-stand-for-t65415.0.html;msg473027#msg473027

There is no centralized server. The file is not being scanned across a network, it is only being distributed by a network. The copyrighted technologies of the other AVs are not being appropriated by Comodo, only the results.

http://forums.comodo.com/news-announcements-feedback-cis/dacs-released-distributed-and-collaborative-scanning-t66827.0.html;msg470176#msg470176

CIS will use DACS... you can simply use CIS to take advantage of DACS.

okay so considering all this, I can see no reason to exclude Comodo using the AV tools that I got.

[Silk0]

And that's it... Melih seems to like write: "Shame on you".

Let's behave and chill out like already said.. let Comodo with DACS alone and let Time do his job.

By the way, if you are asking if i'm a Comodo fan boy, i only got one answer:
Fanboyism don't appears on my dictionary

Agree.

Agree.

Didn't realize that you where one of their fan boys

Not every user of Comodo is a Comodo fanboy.
Not every user of avast is an avast fanboy.
Bob, you can't call fanboy to each one on the other side of the fence.

Also didn't realize that speaking the truth is considered trolling

I agree with you when you were considered as a troll and you're not.
Should I post it there? I've considered as you're my friend, I know (something) of you and you're not a troll.
But would it worth? If you think so, I could do it there.

Bob I haven't been brainwashed just because I'm using Comodo Firewall that doesn't mean I'm fanboy read my sig carefully, Melih doesn't know how to attack my brain or try to Hypnotist me he not that bloody tough.

[sded]

I think this smacks more and more of yet another Comodo publicity campaign with little relevance.  I wouldn't give them any more publicity.  If any of the security companies object to what they are doing, let them send a "cease and desist" and take it from there, but I would not even view it as a threat to VT and Jotti.  The privacy arguments I think are good ones that will keep many from using such a service.  Those who wish can have as much fun as they need to using it to play with big globs of malware; I don't have anything like that, just an occasional file I don't understand and already have various good tools to treat.  Another disappointment from an over-hyped Comodo product.  Worrying about Melihs criminal allegations is silly; just makes him look more like a raving lunatic.  Let Melih and the buttboys have their fun.  And use the tool if it suits you.

[bob3160]

Speedy,
Glad to hear that and accept my apologies if my remarks to you offended you.  :'(

Tech,
Don't bother posting it would only fall of def ears.
Anything you post on their forum that doesn't suit Melih's whim will only be sneered at.
