Ärende: Re: ZoneAlarm into changing Drive Letters now
=====================================================
From: "Gary Britt" <glb@gencog.com>

Antti, if you have  time take a look at the CoreForce product and then let us
know which you like better Comodo or  CoreForce and why?   I'm not sure
a toy like interface would bother me.  I just want the thing to be easy to
setup and yet be effective.  Does Comodo have anything like the built-in
sandboxes in the CoreForce product?
