Publisher's description
From Tzuk :When you browse the Web, changes occur to your computer system. Some harmless, like recording the addresses of Web sites you have visited, so the browser can help you complete a Web address that you type in. Some more harmful, like the unsolicited installation of malware. When you use Sandboxie to protect your browsing session, it catches all these changes just as the browser is about to apply them into your computer system. Sandboxie does record these changes on behalf of the browser, but it records them in a special isolated folder, called the sandbox. Thus, with Sandboxie, you can browse the Web securely while still keeping all your browser's functionality for active and dynamic content, such as Javascript and ActiveX. All undesired side effects, including the removal of malware, can be easily undone.
Version 1.85 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: Sandboxie 1.85
"A must have for internet users"
Pros: Free internet safety (buy the software for some added features), All the downloaded files stay in a virtual space and system is untouched, all the changes that happened during a session is contained in the sandbox and all changes including registry changes are gone after deleting the contents of the sandbox, very lean on using system resources

Version: Sandboxie 1.85
"For web surfers who care about their system, this is a must-have"
Pros: Although Microsoft has improved its IE browser over the years to be more secure, it still cannot be trusted. Evil doers can still do a "drive by" on your system, even if you are up to date with the latest browser and patches.
This provides a very powerful firewall that prevents accidental infections by browsing to less than trustworthy sites.

Version: Sandboxie 1.85
"Lightweight sandbox small download but short on features"
Pros: The download is quite small and the installation doesn't take long at all
Cons: I felt the UI needs a lot of attention, it wasn't at all obvious how to configure this product and the features themselves were lacking at best. Good attempt I suppose.

Version: Sandboxie 1.85
"Most Under Rated Product on the Internet"
Pros: I have been useing this product ever since Steve Gipson Recomened it.
First heard about it on Steve&Leo Podcast..
If you don't want learn all over again with Linux" Get "SandBoxie.
Its like useing Linux but if you don't have a gig of Ram this is for you.
I even use this Product for some of the Security Groups i belong to.
If your not running this product you have know protection for Firefox or Internet Explorer.........Try it and learn how to protect your Famly.

Cons: What i like is if you Really learn how to Run Sandboxie which you need to do some reading to Set it up.But after set up what it dos is works and i'm speaking from going to IRC useing it for the bad guys plus and bot heardersI am a member of countless Security Groups and we all use it.Atleast you don't need Linux when your useing Sanbox and i go to the Dark-Side Alot .
