    I have just installed Comodo 3 and no longer use Sygate. I do not fully understand how Comodo operates. What settings should I change to be better protected and stealthed? I also installed it with leak protection. Should I have not enabled leak protection? I disabled iDefense.

    Hi sniper9228
    My best advice is to read the help section.

    Open Comodo
    Click on the Miscellaneous tab
    Click on the Help section (Read through it so you have a better understanding)
    For Alerts
    Click on the + next to Comodo Firewall Pro - Introduction
    Click on Understanding Alerts.

    Most the time I tell people this rule.
    If you are doing something, Downloading something you know to be safe or updating a program or application and the firewall alerts you then it is probably OK.

    If you are just surfing the net or not updating or downloading anything and the firewall alerts you then there is cause for concern and you need to check on what is trying to come in or out of your firewall.
    In this case I would say to block the alert without using "Remember my answer" in case it is a legit request and will give you time to research the alert.
