Hi all. I was definitely mistaken! Window-Eyes 7.01 and smart
security by Eset v4.0 get along quite nicely. What had happened on my
system was that though I was not running Commodo firewall, there was
the service for it still installed and running. So, there were
compatibility issues, to say the least. Now that I have installed
Eset smart security V4.0, using f5, it all speaks, certainly as much
as 2.7, which I don't understand what 2.7 speaks that 4.0 does not.
Remember, please use f5 when it doesn't speak? I just don't see any
issues which are less accessible with V4.0 than 2.7, and I, with my
friends, ran 2.7 since it first was issued. In fact, out of the box,
with 2.7, it was not as accessible as v4.0 because that graphic user
interface option was on by default in 2.7, and the only way to get to
it, if you remember was to go to the nod32 control center, press
sent, setup and hit alt-S after you'd pressed control tab to focus on
the proper place. That was one which jfw spoke a little better but
after the graphics were turned off, Window-Eyes had no issues at all.
Now that I've installed v4.0, the firewall in "automatic" mode, seems
to be doing the job just fine, and is not nearly as user intensive as
the Commodo firewall. If you wish hands on interaction with your
computer, and, often issues which make Window-Eyes almost restricted
in speaking, Commodo is your friend, and it is probably a little more
secure, at a cost in accessibility, and, that is, if you understand
all of the programs that interact with the internet or private
networks on your computer, or parent programs which must interact
with their modules as children or side by side, and then the parent
has to end said module, etc. in order to work properly. Comodo is
very "hands on" and potentially, as all firewalls, quite technical,
though more than any other I've seen, and played with all of them.
So, to sum up, v4 of Eset smart Security, that I erroneously reported
had issues with Window-Eyes is as silent and unobtrusive as ever v2.7
is, even with a firewall. You can make it ask you about every
program, if you wish as well, though it is not that way by default.
