I have a laptop that my assistant uses and I need him to be able to print remotely but after I set it up comodo will not allow the connection. I already set up the shared printer. I am running through a linksys router. Anyone know how I can get comodo to allow this?

I'm not using the Comodo firewall, so I can't help.

But, are you saying that if you disable Comodo it works?

Have you tried the above link? They have a support forum and email support for their free products. Also that link has a downloadable user guide that states, "The Comodo Firewall Pro user guide covers every aspect of the configuration and usage of the software."

Edit: Yes cross posting your issue in multiple forums, will tend to irritate others who may not see your replies in other forums. Please stick to one forum for questions in the future. Also when you have an open HijackThis issue do not ask for help other than from the HJT tech assisting you, or you will confuse and compound your issue even more.

The hijack this issue I have I havent heard from Blender in ages. So I think she is done. Although I am convinced that someone is tapping into my computer because out of no where my computer will make a sound like someone else is signing in. I think it has something to do with this winzip.exe that comodo keeps asking me about. I dont know what to do about this and I have thousands of social security numbers on my computer. I will post this with Blender but she really isnt getting back to me. Thanks for that link I am gonna check it out.

Can someone please help me with this? I still cannot print when I have my coomodo running. This is costing me alot of time because my assistant has to email me any document that he needs printed. I really need help on this.

Just my opinion.

Dude, you have THOUSANDS of social security numbers on your computer, and you think that something may be wrong, and you are STILL using it?! You don't have the luxury of free help. You need to unplug that internet connection, NOW, and take it to a professional. If my SS number were on your PC, and something were to happen, I guarantee, you would see me in court. Good luck!

Thank you for your kind words sir. But you have no clue what your talking about. The fact of the matter is that blender secured my computer better than anyone I have ever paid off of the net. Please follow the instructions below that a wise man once told me. You will be doing the world a favor.

As a quick fix, I would suggest you delete Comodo and download and use one of the other recommended firewalls.

You've isolated the problem to Comodo's firewall, so why continue to be aggravated?

Worth a try.

Otherwise it would sound like a setting in Comodo, and I would think their support should show you how to change the various settings.

I really do like comodo except that it blocks this and my active sync. I am just not computer savy enough to understand the instructions.

Hi there chugg,

It doesn't matter how frustrated you are, please don't flame at our members.

How about trying another Firewall like ZoneAlarm Free?
Download it, then uninstall Comodo and then install ZoneAlarm.
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.

Sorry about that. In my eyes he flamed me first by telling me he would see me in court. I should have been the bigger man though. I will try this suggestion. Blender set my computer up so nice and I just didnt want to redo what she did thats all.
