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 3.26 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: Sandboxie 3.26
Pros: Very powerful sandboxing application, as good as or better than Norman ASA's sandbox (and Norman ASA is a leader in the sandboxing industry).
Cons: Extra features cost 30$.

Version: Sandboxie 3.26
Pros: Surf with absolute freedom knowing any rubbish is trapped in the sandbox. If you take some time to configure you can stop unwanted and potentially malicious programmes/files that come with browser/P2P activity you have trapped in the sandbox from executing or connecting to the internet and when you restart you application they are gone. You can save files etc you need to your 'real' folders.
Cons: The GUI is not brilliant. You need to pay if you want to 'force' applications to start sandboxed and the best way to configure is to edit the config file which might be difficult for some.

Version: Sandboxie 3.26
Pros: Very powerful protection
Cons: Nothing wrong with it
Summary: Offers phenomenal protection if used properly - I always use Sandboxie and I also scan with around a dozen different signature scanners. All they ever detect is false positives.

Version: Sandboxie 3.26
"must have for any P2P down-loader!!! a+"
Pros: ok.. this software will allow you to install your downloaded apps/ISO/ backup-movies..perhaphs..(many with Trojans and viruses in the keygens,(they are everywhere!) and they never get to the OS or registry. you see them and can delete them but still install and use the 'useful' part of your download. there are much better explanations on the web..
think about it.. some virus software out the is crap, and won't stopor even see trojans and Russian back-door server break-in code. and you'll never know till it's too late. and you just paid for a jet ski in Miami for a vacationing hacker, because they got into your Paypal account.(Don't laugh..it happened to me.)..
Cons: User interface is lame. It should have MORE info and stuff to click..but otherwise it is great!!
