Well you can do that.I mean there is no problem in installing them at the same time.Still take the advice of some computer professional
Give your answer to this question below!
Yes, I think you should be fine if you would like to use Comodo Firewall in tandem with Norton Internet Security.
However, I would suggest that you disable Norton Internet Security’s firewall before you install Comodo Firewall, just to be sure that the two firewalls don’t end up conflicting with each other.
Also, I would also suggest that you check to be sure that the Windows Firewall is also disabled if you’re going to be using another firewall, such as Comodo, just to be sure that the two firewalls don’t end up conflicting with each other.
If you’d like to disable the Windows Firewall, you can do so by going to the Control Panel and then clicking on “Check this computer’s security status”, located under the “Security” section.
From there, you should be able to view and manage your security settings, including enabling and disable Windows Firewall.
Good luck and I hope I helped you!
I would use CAUTION. Comodo tcpip hooks and hidden network device drivers often conflict with other devices, settings, and have seen this multiple times with systems who have had Norton IS/360 installed and chose to go with a third party firewall application. Even when disabled, hidden system drivers are still present. I always recommend going with one specific AV suite application for active security. Be prepard to back it off if you have issues.
