So are these results that you post for an avast product or one of the comodo protection programs?

3

Aren’t Comodo the folks that make a firewall ? Any connection I wonder - how did Comodo fare ? 100% ?

4

I wast just woundering why Avast have so low, when other programs got 340/340

5

Comodo has firewalls and antivirus programs much like avast, symantec, etc.

6

Ah so that is why comodo gave their product 100% - no bias here then ;D

@ chabbo

Leak tests examine your firewall and HIPS program’s vulnerabilities, not your AV’s. Which version of Avast 5 do you use: Free, Pro, or Internet Security?

8

Comodo Leak Test mainly targets HIPS the Defense+ mechanism of Comodo.

If you are using a stand alone Firewall 190 is a good score and is basically what you will score with Comodo’s stand alone firewall without the added HIPS protection (Defense+)

avast has no HIPS. At seems it won’t have in the future (http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=64382.msg546016#msg546016).
