    Just a heads up for anyone whose suddenly having browser issues.

    Had problems earlier this evening where both my home machines suddenly started giving me beowsing difficulties. Most sites I tried wouldn't load at all and either timed out (especially anything Google related - I actually thought it was somehow a google issue initially) or just tried indefinitely to load.
    EVentually managed to get into irishisptest and confirm my connection speed was fine, and non browser traffic was working OK. It happened to both my laptop and desktop, and I hadn't knowingly installed anything new on either, and I definitely hadn't visited the sames sites on both so didn't think it was malware.
    Tried Opera and IE on both machines in case it was a Firefox issue, made no difference.
    Rebooted both machines, no difference, then noticed Comodo had updated itself around the time the problems started. Uninstalled it completely, and everything is back to normal. It's long overdue tbh, it's been a pain anyway freezing up my system for minutes every time I do full reboot.


    (I'm on Vista SP1, not sure what version of Comodo Internet Security I was on as I've just uninstalled it)
