Hi folks

Using Comodo Firewall I noticed the following under "Connections"

Application: LuComServer_3_0.EXE
Destination: 193.120.127.151
PORT: 80-1332
Protocol: TCP In/Out
Traffic: 689kb(and it was increasing..)

Details: Security Risk:Unknown
Path C:\Program Files\Symanted\LiveUpdate\LuComServer_3_0.EXE
Description: Liveupdate Engine COM Module

The thing is I dont have Norton installed! I got a 3 month version of its Internet Security with the laptop but have since uninstalled it! or have I??!!

Part 2 of my question is general, re Comodo

It keeps giving me warnings about everything trying to connect to the internet, Firefox in particular. Now i presume i should "allow" and get it to remember, but the thin is sometimes it says they may be attemptin a hijack! this is scary, as I really dont know what is safe and what is not! What is one supposed to do? beginning to wonder if I'd be better off without a firewall....

thanks

LiveUpdate is bundled with all Norton utilities, not just Norton Antivirus/Internet Security. Therefore if you have programs such as Ghost, pcAnywhere, Systemworks or Goback, Live Update is bundled with them all.
