What is Comodo Dragon?
By COMODO
What is it?
Comodo Dragon is a freeware web browser. The Comodo Dragon browser developed by Comodo Security Solutions, Inc. is based on the Chromium software code developed by Google. It is an implementation of Chromium and is produced by Comodo Group. Sporting a similar interface to Google Chrome, Dragon eliminates Chrome's usage tracking and some other potentially privacy-compromising features, and provides additional security measures, such as indicating the authenticity and relative strength of a website's SSL certificate. Instead of Google Updater, Comodo Dragon features its own built-in Updater. If Dragon is uninstalled, users are given the option of keeping Dragon's cache and cookie files or deleting them.
Why should I uninstall Comodo Dragon?
Comodo Dragon changes your DNS settings to send all traffic via the Comodos NameServers. This allows Comodo to redirect various ad based results back to the browser, specificlaly in the case the URL is missing or broken.
Typical installation path: C:\Program Files\comodo\dragon\
