Congratulations, it is very unlikely that you will find unwanted software on that computer again.

no can do...
but i already got a solution...hide the ethernet cable...HAHAHA!!
but then i need to do the blocking again...using COMODO's paranoid mode is a little tricky because it asked again an application approval even i have select remember my answer...now still thinking about it...

how about leaving the app but wrecking it? e.g. deleting the exe file.

uhhh, very bad idea...nope...no thanks :P
kitamesume:
why? i've tried it once, replacing the exe file with a dummy and locking it so that it can't be deleted or overwritten, result is pretty much you can't reinstall the app to fix it.
edit: on the other hand, i found this http://www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-prevent-users-from-installing-programs-in-windows-7
do step 1 & 4.

How is just unplugging the internet a good solution? That obviously isn't going to work for long, and it's kinda stupid... what exactly are they going to do with no internet?
You need to set them up a separate Windows user account and restrict its privileges so that it can't install anything.
Oh and if you wanna be a douche, you can get parental control software and restrict certain websites too... lol
Comodo is pretty much garbage... I'd stop trying to work it into some kind of solution... hell, I'd uninstall the worthless thing to be honest.
