Frequently asked questions about Comodo Cleaning Essentials
What does KillSwitch offer me that I don't already have?
KillSwitch can show ALL running processes and objects in real time- exposing even those that were invisible or deeply hidden away. This core functionality has been seamlessly integrated with Comodo's huge whitelist of known executables to create a unique product that accurately classifies the threat level of running processes with the absolute minimum of false positives.
By leveraging the whitelist database to isolate just those items that are untrusted, admins can greatly reduce the pool of potentially problematic processes they have to verify as safe or not. This route to safety through a 'process of elimination' is strengthened by the ability of CCE to check these untrusted processes in real-time using Comodo's cloud scanners. Also, once an untrusted process has been identified in memory, administrators can use the information to trace back to the source executables. With a single mouse click, all untrusted processes can be terminated or suspended. All untrusted objects can be deleted or renamed.
As a system monitoring utility, KillSwitch also grants unparalleled insight and control over services, processes, BHO's and layered service providers. It can be made to replace Window's Task Manager within a couple of clicks and offers network admins another powerful layer of protection for endpoint computers. CCE is the perfect complement to products such as Comodo Internet Security and Advanced Endpoint Protection.
Can you tell me more about the malware scanner?
The on-demand malware scanner uses the same core technology as Comodo Antivirus but does not require installation and can be run directly from removal media such as a USB stick. Awarded Virus Bulletin VB100 status, the scanning engine uses the very latest heuristic techniques to identify previously unknown, zero day threats with an very high level of efficiency. The scanner is also extremely effective at disinfecting and removing viruses once they have been identified.
What is a portable application?
Portable applications do not need to be installed and can be run directly from media such as a USB stick (just double click on 'cce.exe'.
Why does CCE need 210 MB disk-space?
This is to house the database of black-listed virus signatures that must be downloaded on first run. This database powers the malware scanner.
Who should use Comodo Cleaning Essentials?
Comodo products are designed to be accessible to users of any experience level. However, the highly technical nature of the information presented by KillSwitch probably makes it more suited to system administrators, advanced users or computer science students. On the other hand, the malware scanner features a simple interface and can be used with ease by anybody.
