I initially only installed “Comodo Firewall” but for some reason they also installed a “Comodo Dragon Browser”, which I did not consent to. I always choose the “advanced” installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won’t be able to uninstall the software…
For you Windows users. Check out chocolatey.org kind of like apt-get for Windows without stuff like this
Shit like this is what lorem ipsum is for.
I needed a new heel for my shoe, so I decided to go to Morganville which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So, I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ‘em. ‘Give me five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.
That or a in depth description of your last bowel movement.

I think even then, they’d recognize fast that it’s just fake text. For maximum impact, get an LLM to generate a long winded but realistic sounding response. It’ll probably be obvious eventually that it was an LLM because their writing style is so distinct, but it takes much longer to recognize.

(From ChatGPT)
Long review without actually saying anything of value:I find it imperative to delve into the intricacies and nuances of the subject matter at hand. It is only through this meticulous examination that one can truly appreciate the multifaceted nature of the topic. By considering every aspect, both overt and covert, I aim to present a comprehensive evaluation that reflects a discerning analysis.
Let me begin by stating that the topic I am reviewing is undoubtedly captivating. Its allure transcends traditional boundaries and beckons the audience to indulge in its myriad offerings. The breadth of its scope is truly impressive, and it effortlessly weaves a tapestry of intrigue that captivates the senses.
Upon initial inspection, one is immediately struck by the sheer magnitude of the subject. Its influence reverberates through time, echoing the aspirations and dreams of countless individuals. It engenders a sense of wonder and curiosity that compels the seeker to venture further into its depths, unraveling the layers of mystery concealed within.
The surface-level impressions are undoubtedly impressive, and it is only upon closer examination that the true essence of the subject begins to reveal itself. The subtleties and nuances that lie beneath the facade gradually emerge, painting a vivid portrait that is both thought-provoking and evocative. Each brushstroke contributes to the grandeur of the masterpiece, adding depth and dimension to an already captivating tableau.
Yet, as I navigate the labyrinthine corridors of this topic, I cannot help but ponder the meaning behind the seemingly profound statements and elaborate intricacies. Is there a hidden message lurking beneath the surface, or are we merely grasping at ephemeral wisps of substance? The answer remains tantalizingly elusive, further fueling the fervor of inquiry.
The subject at hand embodies a fusion of intellectual discourse and sensory stimulation. It traverses the boundaries of traditional thought, challenging preconceived notions and beckoning the mind to expand beyond its self-imposed limitations. It demands an active engagement, enticing the individual to contemplate its implications and unravel its enigmatic nature.

It invites the audience to participate in a grand symphony of ideas, harmonizing disparate elements into a cohesive whole. The crescendo builds with each passing moment, reaching a climax that leaves one breathless and yearning for more.
This is flippin great actually xD
Babe wake up, new copypasta just dropped
Epic choice
Someone made a ChatGPT lemmy bot, forgot the username though lol. Would’ve been handy to ask it…
lol. *uses operating system with built-in firewall* *installs crapware 3rd party firewall*
The dumbest part about this is that if you force people to complete it, they’re more likely to select a random option and click “next”. Any information they get from this survey will be mostly useless.
The real question is why you installed sketchy firewall software I’ve never even heard of.
In the early 2000’s Commodo was actually a reputable consumer-grade firewall vendor. Like all security software vendors, they eventually became that which they fought against.
Huh. TIL. So why did they fade away?
Because built in security tools in Windows are much better and free. And enabled by default. Installing 3rd party tools is dumb at the very least.
Windows firewall and defender are hot garbage. It is one of the first thing I disable on a fresh install.
Well, you’re just plain wrong.
Look you like fondling Microsoft, go ahead. Don’t go around telling people how good it feels. Too many false positive, too much information being sent back to Microsoft. No where near enough personalization or settings. Don’t get me started on the firewall. Might as well not have one.
It’s better than most, if not all free options, as long as it stays online, which it doesn’t really require much data and it’s updates are separate from windows updates so you can let defender do its thing while limiting/blocking windows updates.
The online thing is what my issue is. Plus I take my security seriously so I have no issue paying for ESET. I don’t trust any free anti virus.

It also had options (framed as “levels” of ptotection) that would make more of those pop up prompts at completely nonsensical times about nonsense things - like declareing whatever you just tried to run was using a global hook. I had virtualdub up and opened windows notepad and it tried to tell me that virtualdub was using a global hook as if virtualdub was a threat.
In all my years in IT thats still im the top 10 dumbest things I’ve seen in software even all these years later.
[This comment has been deleted by an automated system]
The issue and why it wss stupid wasn’t that it was a hook, its that it was attributing it to any app you opened when by definition a global hook is GLOBAL - you do users no gppd by scarinh them into thinking every global hool is malware frpm whatever random thing they ran. Those alert even would trigger on windows notepad. There is no reasom amy comnination of iser options should do this.
That was piss poor design and they evenyually walked it ba k after months of defending it by implying users amd security researchers were stupid on their forum, simce deleted. Its not in the wayback machine or I’d show you. Thier “fans” dogpiled on the topic after thier staff replied condesdingly.

Not a bug exactly - they didn’t think it through. To see what I was talking about you’d need a very very old version. Like way back when it was new. It seemed the that it was the developers that didn’t know what a global hook was. They were just very obnoxious about it before finally seeing reason and correcting the behaviour. At the time, it woild fire for -every- global hook. To my knowledge you can mo longer reproduce this, but the reaction they had to someone trying to suggest this wasn’t right was enough for me to never go near anything under thier brand ever again.
Because they already downloaded all the RAM they could so this is the next logical step.

If anyone’s wondering. The text above is actually a placeholder commonly known as “Lorem Ipsum” and is used in the design and typesetting industry. It doesn’t have a specific meaning or translation because it consists of scrambled Latin words and doesn’t form coherent sentences.

Go fuck yourselves you cunts:)

My laptop was bundled with McAffee’s garbage software, their uninstaller DOES NOT work. They have a tool to get rid of their software on their website but the links were down and when I finally downloaded it, it didn’t fully uninstall it. Revo uninstaller wasn’t able to get rid of it either, it’s like a rootkit! I was only able to get rid of it by contacting McAffee and talking to their tech support
This is why I install a fresh Windows install anytime I get a new machine. Its super easy to do and only requires a flash drive.
Buy what about the key. Won’t someone think of the keys!
You mean 30 spaces?
May not be accepted. On the other hand… 30 nonbreaking spaces…
just write some gibberish or “go fuck yourselves” in every field.

Send them this: Comodo Dragon browser, where do I even begin? Strap in, because this is going to be a wild ride through the depths of disappointment and frustration.
Let’s start with the interface. Oh boy, where to even start? It’s like they took all the worst design elements from every other browser and threw them together in a blender without bothering to hit the “blend” button. Tabs are scattered haphazardly across the top of the window, buttons are strewn about like confetti at a clown convention, and don’t even get me started on the menu layout. It’s a maze of confusion that would make even the most seasoned navigators feel like they’re lost in the Bermuda Triangle.
But hey, maybe you can overlook the interface if the performance is decent, right? Wrong. Comodo Dragon moves at the speed of a snail stuck in molasses. Pages take ages to load, even on a high-speed connection, and once they finally do, good luck trying to scroll through them without feeling like you’re trying to push a boulder up a mountain. It’s enough to make you want to throw your computer out the window and go back to using carrier pigeons to communicate.
And then there’s the security features. Oh boy, don’t even get me started. Supposedly, Comodo Dragon offers top-of-the-line security measures to keep your data safe from prying eyes. But in reality, it’s about as effective as putting a “Beware of Dog” sign on a house with a pet goldfish. Malware scanning? Phishing protection? More like wishful thinking and crossed fingers. You’d have better luck protecting your data by writing it on a piece of paper and burying it in your backyard.
But wait, there’s more! Let’s talk about customization options. Or should I say, lack thereof. Sure, you can change the color scheme or add some fancy themes, but good luck finding anything that actually improves your browsing experience. It’s like trying to decorate a dumpster fire with sparklers - no matter how much you try to pretty it up, it’s still a dumpster fire.
In conclusion, Comodo Dragon is a dumpster fire of a browser that should be avoided at all costs. Save yourself the headache and stick with something more reliable, like banging two rocks together to communicate. At least then you won’t have to deal with the soul-crushing disappointment of trying to use this monstrosity of a browser.
I would have used Revo Uninstaller - the free version to remove it. After it runs the uninstaller it finds registry and file items left behind by the uninstaller.
