I initially only installed “Comodo Firewall” but for some reason they also installed a “Comodo Dragon Browser”, which I did not consent to. I always choose the “advanced” installation to uncheck bloatware, but in this case there was none and when you try to uninstall the browser, they force you to participate in their survey otherwise you won’t be able to uninstall the software…
Shit like this is what lorem ipsum is for.

I think even then, they’d recognize fast that it’s just fake text. For maximum impact, get an LLM to generate a long winded but realistic sounding response. It’ll probably be obvious eventually that it was an LLM because their writing style is so distinct, but it takes much longer to recognize.

I needed a new heel for my shoe, so I decided to go to Morganville which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So, I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ‘em. ‘Give me five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now, where were we? Oh, yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.

Babe wake up, new copypasta just dropped
Epic choice
There once was a browser called Comodo
That promised to be fast and modo
But it was so slow and full of woe
That it made its users go loco
Someone made a ChatGPT lemmy bot, forgot the username though lol. Would’ve been handy to ask it…
Time to introduce them to 'lil Bobby Tables

Bonus points if you can enumerate all tables.
“Fuck you” four times
Navy SEAL copy pasta.
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little removed? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
Now do Vaporeon.
Exactly what my first thought was, but I’d just paste the whole thing in again, just for good measure.
The real question is why you installed sketchy firewall software I’ve never even heard of.
In the early 2000’s Commodo was actually a reputable consumer-grade firewall vendor. Like all security software vendors, they eventually became that which they fought against.
Create the problem, sell the solution
Huh. TIL. So why did they fade away?
Because built in security tools in Windows are much better and free. And enabled by default. Installing 3rd party tools is dumb at the very least.
Especially free ones that aren’t FOSS… 😂
Windows firewall and defender are hot garbage. It is one of the first thing I disable on a fresh install.
It’s better than most, if not all free options, as long as it stays online, which it doesn’t really require much data and it’s updates are separate from windows updates so you can let defender do its thing while limiting/blocking windows updates.
The online thing is what my issue is. Plus I take my security seriously so I have no issue paying for ESET. I don’t trust any free anti virus.
If you have serious security needs, yeah paying for a proper one makes sense, I’m not denying that. Just for the 99% of people who don’t need beefy security, defender is better than everything else free, and you were already giving your data to microsoft anyway so you might as well get some benefit from it. Defender is actually quite effective, and it has been since W10 at least.
Well, you’re just plain wrong.
Look you like fondling Microsoft, go ahead. Don’t go around telling people how good it feels. Too many false positive, too much information being sent back to Microsoft. No where near enough personalization or settings. Don’t get me started on the firewall. Might as well not have one.

Wait did the Comodo guy also go crazy and kill a guy in Belize?
😂
Because you’re too young to remember a time when Comodo was a decent firewall option for Windows XP.

It also had options (framed as “levels” of ptotection) that would make more of those pop up prompts at completely nonsensical times about nonsense things - like declareing whatever you just tried to run was using a global hook. I had virtualdub up and opened windows notepad and it tried to tell me that virtualdub was using a global hook as if virtualdub was a threat.
In all my years in IT thats still im the top 10 dumbest things I’ve seen in software even all these years later.
[This comment has been deleted by an automated system]
The issue and why it wss stupid wasn’t that it was a hook, its that it was attributing it to any app you opened when by definition a global hook is GLOBAL - you do users no gppd by scarinh them into thinking every global hool is malware frpm whatever random thing they ran. Those alert even would trigger on windows notepad. There is no reasom amy comnination of iser options should do this.
That was piss poor design and they evenyually walked it ba k after months of defending it by implying users amd security researchers were stupid on their forum, simce deleted. Its not in the wayback machine or I’d show you. Thier “fans” dogpiled on the topic after thier staff replied condesdingly.
[This comment has been deleted by an automated system]
Not a bug exactly - they didn’t think it through. To see what I was talking about you’d need a very very old version. Like way back when it was new. It seemed the that it was the developers that didn’t know what a global hook was. They were just very obnoxious about it before finally seeing reason and correcting the behaviour. At the time, it woild fire for -every- global hook. To my knowledge you can mo longer reproduce this, but the reaction they had to someone trying to suggest this wasn’t right was enough for me to never go near anything under thier brand ever again.
Because they already downloaded all the RAM they could so this is the next logical step.
Comodo was reputable for quite a while
Similar to McAfee.
McAfee was reputable but trash from damn near the get go… Same as Norton
For many years comodo firewall and AV were one of the best, least obtrusive and consistently did well in detection charts etc.
Then I stopped using Windows so no idea what they are like now
I’ve seen a quick video about it on YouTube from a reputable Windows security YouTuber. Can’t remember which exactly, probably “ThioJoe” or “The PC Security Channel”. I wrote the softwares name down a long time ago and decided to give it a try today.
That’s a mistake, always gotta be updated when it comes to these things and look up recent videos for suggestions instead. If you haven’t already, make sure to delete everything comodo related from every nook and corner.
People are telling me it used to be a big thing in the 2000’s. No hate intended here.
Yeah, they should’ve asked you about it first! Duh!
My laptop was bundled with McAffee’s garbage software, their uninstaller DOES NOT work. They have a tool to get rid of their software on their website but the links were down and when I finally downloaded it, it didn’t fully uninstall it. Revo uninstaller wasn’t able to get rid of it either, it’s like a rootkit! I was only able to get rid of it by contacting McAffee and talking to their tech support
This is why I install a fresh Windows install anytime I get a new machine. Its super easy to do and only requires a flash drive.
Buy what about the key. Won’t someone think of the keys!
I use what they call the ‘cmd trick’ and it’s never not worked.
Wtf, this sound super sketchy to me…
Many people have noted how the McAfee virus scanner itself behaves like a virus.
If they didn’t do this they could no longer exist.
They’ll get a lot of “dguhvdrhhfddhcbjgfbkogdwscvbopiyrcbkitdcbjitewsfgbnkoiggvgfdxvhgvbnj”
Bulk Crap Uninstaller.
I used to recommend Revo, but… something happened to it a while back… i’ll check out BCU.
Shitification happened.
You picked “other”. Just pick any other reason. Like, the one likely saying “I didn’t want to install this”.
For you Windows users. Check out chocolatey.org kind of like apt-get for Windows without stuff like this
“I had the misfortune to come across a leaked video of your CEO <Google name> having some really questionable sexual intercourse with a really sketchy character, and it was truly disgusting. I can not in good conscience support a company led by such a horrible individual”
If they want feedback, give them feedback.
I can’t believe they named their browser “Comodo Dragon” lol
“Comfortable Dragon”
The dumbest part about this is that if you force people to complete it, they’re more likely to select a random option and click “next”. Any information they get from this survey will be mostly useless.
Use a Lorem ipsum generator. The default is 5 paragraphs of useless text. Perfect for situations like this.
I think I would either copy paste some kind of awful scat fanfic erotica or just hold down one letter till I had 30 characters depending on how much effort I wanted to put into it.
Infinite cum. You sit on the toilet to jack off, but you begin to cum uncontrollably. After ten spurts you start to worry. Your hand is sticky and it reeks of semen. You desperately shove your dick into a wad of toilet paper, but that only makes your balls hurt. The cum accelerates. It’s been three minutes. You can’t stop cumming. Your bathroom floor is covered in a thin layer of baby fluid. You try to cum into the shower drain but it builds up too fast. You try the toilet. The cum is too thick to be flushed. You lock the bathroom door to prevent the cum from escaping. The air grows hot and humid from the cum. The cum accelerates. You slip and fall in your own sperm. The cum is now six inches deep, almost as long as your still-erect semen hose. Sprawled on your back, you begin to cum all over the ceiling. Globs of the sticky white fluid begin to fall like raindrops, giving you a facial with your own cum. The cum accelerates. You struggle to stand as the force of the cum begins to propel you backwards as if you were on a bukkake themed slip-and-slide. Still on your knees, the cum is now at chin height. To avoid drowning you open the bathroom door. The deluge of man juice reminds you of the Great Molasses Flood of 1919, only with cum instead of molasses. The cum accelerates. It’s been two hours. Your children and wife scream in terror as their bodies are engulfed by the snow-white sludge. Your youngest child goes under, with viscous bubbles and muffled cries rising from the goop. You plead to God to end your suffering. The cum accelerates. You squeeze your dick to stop the cum, but it begins to leak out of your asshole instead. You let go. The force of the cum tears your urethra open, leaving only a gaping hole in your crotch that spews semen. Your body picks up speed as it slides backwards along the cum. You smash through the wall, hurtling into the sky at thirty miles an hour. From a bird’s eye view you see your house is completely white. Your neighbor calls the cops. The cum accelerates. As you continue to ascend, you spot police cars racing towards your house. The cops pull out their guns and take aim, but stray loads of cum hit them in the eyes, blinding them. The cum accelerates. You are now at an altitude of 1000 feet. The SWAT team arrives. Military helicopters circle you. Hundreds of bullets pierce your body at once, yet you stay conscious. Your testicles have now grown into a substitute brain. The cum accelerates. It has been two days. With your body now destroyed, the cum begins to spray in all directions. You break the sound barrier. The government deploys fighter jets to chase you down, but the impact of your cum sends one plane crashing to the ground. The government decides to let you leave the earth. You feel your gonads start to burn up as you reach the edges of the atmosphere. You narrowly miss the ISS, giving it a new white paint job as you fly past. Physicists struggle to calculate your erratic trajectory. The cum accelerates. The cum begins to gravitate towards itself, forming a comet trail of semen. Astronomers begin calling you the “Cummet.” You are stuck in space forever, stripped of your body and senses, forced to endure an eternity of cumshots. Eventually, you stop thinking.

But why provide them useless noise when you could provide them the lyrics of a Gin n Juice spoof about Genghis Kahn, as generated by ChatGPT?
Bonus points if anyone can tell what prompt I gave ChatGPT to generate this:
(Verse 1) Uh, uh, uh, uh,
It was all a dream, I used to scroll on Reddit,
Up late at night, my eyes bloodshot and shredded.
Postin’ comments, gettin’ upvotes, chasin’ that gold,
But deep down inside, I wanted freedom, so I’m told.I heard ‘bout a place, where the community’s free,
No corporate overlords, just open source, you see.
It’s called Lemmy, where servers run by anyone,
Browsing and interactin’, it’s truly second to none.(Chorus)
It’s Lemmy, Lemmy, the land of liberty,
No more tight fists, now we’re truly free.
From different servers, we can come together,
Postin’, sharin’, buildin’ a world that’s better.(Verse 2)
I used to feel controlled, caught in a corporate trap,
But Lemmy showed me a world where I could finally unwrap.
No more shadow bans, no more censorship at play,
Expressin’ opinions freely, every single day.No more karma points, no more fake internet fame,
Just genuine discussions, where ideas aren’t tamed.
The community’s diverse, with voices far and wide,
Lemmy brings us together, side by side.(Chorus)
It’s Lemmy, Lemmy, the land of liberty,
No more tight fists, now we’re truly free.
From different servers, we can come together,
Postin’, sharin’, buildin’ a world that’s better.(Bridge Now I’m livin’ in Lemmy, where freedom reigns supreme,
No more echo chambers, it’s like a beautiful dream.
Upvotes and downvotes, they don’t define my worth,
Just authentic conversations, a true rebirth.(Verse 3)
I left the karma race, the relentless upvote grind,
Now I’m in Lemmy, where my thoughts can truly unwind.
Engagin’ with real people, sharin’ knowledge and views,
No more hivemind mentality, we’ve got nothin’ to lose.From politics to hobbies, it’s all here on display,
No more corporate agendas, it’s the users who hold sway.
So join me in Lemmy, where freedom’s at its peak,
A community united, breakin’ free from the weak.(Chorus)
It’s Lemmy, Lemmy, the land of liberty,
No more tight fists, now we’re truly free.
From different servers, we can come together,
Postin’, sharin’, buildin’ a world that’s better.(Outro)
So if you’re tired of the corporate control,
Come join us in Lemmy, let your voice unroll.
It’s a place of openness, where ideas can soar,
Escape from Reddit’s grasp, and find freedom once more.
Isn’t the option above “other”, “I don’t want to use it” or something along those lines? just tick that? Never found these to be that annoying. Just pick at random and be done with it.
Get yer logic outta here! This is an outrage post!
