Disable Kaspersky firewall in favor of Comodo Firewall
2014-04

I have recently bought and activated my Kaspersky Internet Security, and it conflicts with my Comodo Firewall which was installed before.
I want to disable Kaspersky firewall, but to keep their antivirus. I looked in Control Panel, and it seems like I can only remove the whole product and a "modify" option does not exist.
How can I remove their firewall? Should I remove my Comodo Firewall instead?

Hi @TheOrthanormalBeginner - Comodo and Kaspersky Internet Security are not compatible. Please see the list of incompatible products here: http://support.kaspersky.com/us/9852#block1

Hey, I downloaded the new Kaspersky Internet Security 2010, and since then my internet has not been working. As soon as I disable Kaspersky my internet works.
I have narrowed down to what the problem within Kaspersky is and I am currently running it with:
Enabled - File Anti-Virus
Disabled - Mail Anti-Virus
Disabled - Web Anti-Virus
Disabled - IM Anti-Virus
Enabled - Application Control
Enabled - Firewall
Enabled - Protective Defence
Enabled - Network Attack Blocker
Disabled - Anti-Spam
Disabled - Anti-Banner
Disabled - Parental Control
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Have you managed to get another anti-virus running? I made the mistake once of having both AVG and Avast running at the same time and couldn't get any browser to work.
As soon as I disabled one of them it all worked again.

You need to check Kaspersky Rules for the firewall. See if all the connections are restricted. See this for details : http://support.kaspersky.com/kis2010/firewall?qid=208280574

Why not just use Microsoft Security Essentials? It's free and the best protection currently available.
