You could install KIS
it is better than Comodo but KIS has great online / forum Support

It's better you disable the firewall feature in norton internet security and keep your comodo firewall which is really a good firewall…

I highly recommond not to. COMODO is one of the best out there, and by protection settings it will take over Norton by a mile!
Also, just to make sure, you should not have both of them on at the same time (or even installed) - it literally can burn your CPU since they are both fighting over one thing and deadlocks might happen
Also, Norton uses shared components on your computer which make your computer very slow compared to Comodo.
Finally, if I were you, I would recommond you to remove both and install Comodo Internet Security (Defense+ [annoying but very very useful], Antivirus (times faster than norton), and ofc the firewall).
Hope I was useful

Keep the Comodo firewall as it is the best IMHO.

If you just brought a new pc I will suggest that you do the best thing to protect it and get a physical firewall. Something like a firewall router. Linksys has several of them that are affordable. Software firewalls will only prolong the hacking not stop them. Plus with the physical firewall you do what a firewall was intended to do and stop unwanted communication to your pc. Not allow it to get to your pc and then decide what you want to do with it then. I hope this helps you.
