i was updating the flash player to the 9.0 124 versiod and my defense+ component in Comodo Firewall pro said this file might be a virus. here is one of the logs C:\users\name\desktop\install_flash_player.exe create process c:\users\name\appdata\local\temp\nstEED2.tmp\nsF191.tmp

when i double clicked it again it gave me this log c:\users\name\appdata\local\temp\nse711B.tmp\ns71C8.tmp

Hi,

The installer is creating .tmp files. These are temporary files which are needed to temporarily save data, like when installing or updating. There may be a lot of temporary files on your computer and you could remove them with programs like for instance CrapCleaner and ATF Cleaner.

So you should allow the temporary files to be made. After clicking allow for a couple of times Comodo may ask you if you want to go into installation mode. This is useful to do because otherwise you'd have to click allow for a thousand times as the updater may create a lot of new files.

Personally, on every computer I install Comodo on I disable it as I find it annoying and for instance my parents don't know what to click if a window pops up.

Please let me know if you understood all this

Greets, John.

thanks. yeah i know its only a temp file but why would it say it was a potential virus?

It says that of every file which is created or changed (maybe even removed, but I am not sure) by another file. That is why it is so annoying during install.
