its not a virus >

Comodo Personal Firewall – CPF.EXE

Cpf.exe installs with Comodo Personal Firewall by the Comodo Group. This firewall promises protection from internal and external attacks from malicious programs or Trojans and to help prevent identity theft. More information can be found at http://www.personalfirewall.trustix.com/...

If you use this as your firewall program, you'll want to leave this file in place.  the file is safe as comodo is a  good firewall and trusted too

So dont take any risk.
