Komodo dragons utilize forked tongues to stalk and kill large warm-blooded mammals over distances, sniffing out wounded or dead prey via their forked tongues and sense of smell aided by serrated teeth and saliva with anticoagulant and shock-inducing properties.
However, these fish display impressive physical movement and homing ability; yet remain highly site fidelity to their natal valleys, often remaining within them for most of their lives. We show how this extreme philopatry is mitigated through co-adaptations relaxing density-mediated competition while restricting dispersal.
Features
Comodo Dragon (IceDragon) is an Internet browser developed by Comodo that combines Chrome’s speed and features with enhanced security and privacy protections. As one of their more common security software products, this web browser helps safeguard users against some of the more prevalent online threats.
Google Chrome is built on Chromium, an open-source platform. The aesthetic minimalist interface resembles that of its open source counterpart making it simple for people familiar with Chrome to navigate it easily. Unfortunately, however, Microsoft Windows operating systems only are currently supported.
Comodo Dragon browser stands out from other browsers by not transmitting browsing data to a central server, making it more privacy-friendly than many. Furthermore, this program displays a bright yellow warning whenever users visit websites with weak security certificates; and can be configured to automatically clear privacy-related data at every exit (such as browsing/download history, cached images/files/data, cookies and site data, autofill form information/passwords etc).
Comodo Dragon can also be configured to block certain applications not on a user-specified whitelist, helping increase security but increasing the risk of blocking legitimate programs that could be exploited by hackers to gain entry. Furthermore, Comodo Dragon may be configured to open your most recently visited website upon restart, display a search engine in the address bar with prediction service enabled when typing web addresses, synchronize bookmarks between browsers and manage cookie preferences – among other functions.
An additional feature that stands out is the sandbox mode, enabling users to browse in an isolated virtual environment that reduces security risk by preventing malware from infiltrating other parts of their device. Furthermore, the browser includes a tool for identifying suspicious EXE files which can prove invaluable in an event of infection.
Comodo Dragon provides quick access to the browser’s main features, such as scanning and unblocking applications. There is also a shortcut for its sandbox mode and customer support links; however, most advertised features don’t work very well or have been discontinued altogether.

Unblock applications (to reactivate desktop programs you had temporarily disabled); update virus definitions; or start a “secure shopping” session which provides virtualized desktop environment with only access to Windows File Explorer and certain installed web browsers such as Comodo IceDragon).
Right next to the main window is a mini-dashboard which displays information about Comodo’s containment tasks (the feature that lets you run untrusted applications safely in an isolated sandboxed environment) as well as any suspect files that have been identified as dangerous or suspicious.
Comodo Virtual Mode runs any downloaded files on its servers to conduct instantaneous malware analysis in an isolated environment, typically taking 15 minutes before sending back results back to you computer. To activate this feature, Comodo Internet Security 2013 or higher must be installed, as this provides virtualization technology to power this feature.

Komodo dragons are large, solitary animals that spend most of their time hunting for food. They specialize in hunting birds, reptiles, mammals and insects ranging in size from birds and reptiles to mammals and insects – especially insects! Komodos are known for their powerful jaws and sharp claws but their primary weapon is lethal venom from 50 different strains of bacteria found in their saliva causing instant and deadly infection in prey they hunt down – including 200 times their own body weight! Sadly they are threatened species found only on three Indonesian Islands in Lesser Sunda chain: Rintja Padar Komodo Island itself!
