Kicked out of MAME!?
#251723 - 04/13/11 07:00 PM

Using Alt+Tab immediately after getting kicked out of MAME while playing a game I seen that Comodo AV was doing something at just the (in)convenient time. Is there a setting in MAME so that when something like this happens I'm not kicked out (and MAME is automatically minimized)?
Or would it be simple as setting it to always on top...? I don't see anyway to do that, but doesn't hurt to ask.

Then shouldn't you be looking for a setting in Comodo AV instead of MAME?
Unless I'm misreading you.

Some security programs like that have a "silent mode" or "gaming mode", see if you can enable that. Basically they shut the hell up about updates and stuff for exactly the reason you got kicked from your game. They still preform the update and all that just don't tell you about it. If it doesn't have such a mode, well, I'd look into using a different program. If you do decide to change don't forget to bitch them out about their lack of this feature, maybe they'll add it sometime down the line.

Comodo is always doing this to me.
Install a new game, run it, Comodo comes up, but you can't actually get to the dialog (Alt Tab flashes it up to quickly to do anything with, etc). Sometimes it causes deadlock - the game cannot proceed and I cannot get to the Comodo dialog, so I have to kill of the game, check "Remember my answer" and click the "Allow" button in the Comodo dialog, and re-run game.
It's the price you pay for security.

I've been using MSE for the last few months or so, and AMAZINGLY it's been the most carefree AV I've used in my life.

Agreed. I run Avast and the new MSE on different machines and I have to admit, MSE is definitely competitive. From my experience, it produces fewer false positives and is generally less intrusive at the expense of a slightly larger (~80mb) memory footprint. If MS would add more features like sandboxing and self-protection I wouldn't really have any reason to run anything else.

I'm sorry man, but Comodo has to be the single most infuriating virus scanner I've ever used. It wouldn't even let me play video games - it insisted on scanning ANYTHING LOADED INTO MEMORY. Something that takes thirty seconds to load on my PC suddenly took an hour.
