Sandboxie 3.52

Rated 50/50 by victorh2007 at Jun 1, 2009

"Best of all Hips" Safe, light on resources, easy to use and perfect integration with major web browsers like IE, Firefox and Google Chrome. It's the perfect way to get rid of all malwares. It's not freeware. I fell safe when I surf the internet using Sandboxie and also when I have to start a program or file I'm not sure it's totally secure.

Brilliantly conceived security software! To be perfectly honest, once properly configured, this is the only security software needed to protect one's pc.

Great idea, but we're still waiting for a 64-bit solution. I imagine the need is only going to become more pressing now that 64-bit OSes are slowly hitting their stride, and >4GB RAM will become standard on newer PCs. I guess we can say Sandboxie was great while it lasted? :)

its weird i tried it but i never tested it for sure and opened a virus in it,but if wat they say its true then sandboxie kinda bullet proof ur pc from malware files to browsers i really doubt it cause it only take 7mb ram max but im gona test it soon none soo far well ... speed bit video accelerator dont work if u use SB in web browsing which is logical cause its kinda shields firefox from any outer interference and ofcourse firefox extensions works hmm give it a try its odd that its not popular cause if it does wat it do this may be the ultimate solution for windows xp users cause i think those gets alot of viruses plus the installer dosnt contain a trojan or a virus i scanned thro a registered ESET NOD 32 which i belive is the most accurate antivirus and scanned with Mbam

"Sandboxie does not contain a virus" Please read here regarding ImYourBig Daddy's (false) assertion that Sandboxie contains a virus. http://sandboxie.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=5985 No cons to speak of.

"Wall malware can't go into or out of." Perfect compliment to Firefox or Internet Explorer and computer security. Have not experienced any. Wall malware can't go into or out of.

Not only does sandboxie keep viruses out, but it prevents any changes to your system by internet files. It is like having a computer within a computer and your original set up remains prestine. Some Microsoft Office documents downloads (Word or Excel) can only be saved after the document has been closed. This is a very minor annoyance. Since Sandboxeie prevents any viruses from entering the computer and since there are essesntially no changes made to the operating system this product keeps my computer new. Imagine that you are going to have a party and you completely recreate your house, have the party and then eliminate your recreated house. Your original house will bear no trace whatsoever of the party that took place the night before. Similarly nothing in your computer will be altered. Ther will be no trace of where you have been. You can even go to hacker sites, see your anti-virus going crazy, delete your sanbox and your computer will be completely unaltered in any way.

Great little program! I usually surf with Firefox(+Noscript) but if I need/want to surf with IE I have it configured as "enforced program" and I can most safely surf even on the phoniest sites. Additionally I can test-drive executables (yes, also trojans and the like) in the sand-box

It's a great tool but we need 64bit support badly. I guess the author doesn't have deep pockets to pay for a 64bit signed driver.

Excellent. But I wish it worked under x64 OSs :(

There will probably never be a 64bit version> http://www.sandboxie.com/index.php?WindowsVista64

UPieper: I know, I read it. The only problem with all that: it's a bunch of crap. MacOS has been x64 forever and it got all kinds of programs. If this guy can't buy a license (and it IS possible by, for example, donation gathering, like PeerBlock has done), it's not reason to blame x64 architecture. Now, MAYBE Microsoft's implementation was/is bad, but this is no point in saying that x64 is bad too. There's a whole bunch of quite sophisticated programs made for x64, I simply can't believe that Sandboxie is the only one that can't be run or re-written to run under 64bit OS.

Diam0nd I don't think you really read it, more like skipped through it at best. "MacOS has been x64 forever and it got all kinds of programs." Has absolutely no relevance for Sandboxie since it's a Windows OS program. "is no point in saying that x64 is bad too." He never said that or even suggested it, he's only saying some of Microsofts new security features in the 64bit version of their OS makes it impossible to implement security features for his software, and Microsoft offers no api's or anything else that allows him to get around these problems. And for the last part of your comment, Sandboxie did have a 64bit version, it ran but as he mentioned again PatchGuard being the biggest problems. And thus why he had to stop any 64bit version of the software. No point in writing a program with one or more big security holes in them, defeats the purpose of Sandboxie. Now having said all that, he could take advantage of virtualization techonology. But to each their own as we are moving to 64bit world, like it or not.

STILL no 64-bit version ... :( When are you going to open your eyes ??? When we get the 128-bit operating systems ... I've been in 64-bit mode since 2003. That's six (6) years beings you can only count 32, 32, 32, 32 ... First one out with 64 bit has got my undivided attention!!!

this program is excellent to prevent 32bit OS from malware attacks. launch what u want in the box, it should block 99% of bad codes that want to compromise your system.

darkwzrd1 Go eat a schlong, you ****ing moron. I didn't even say the program was bad and I rated it 5, because I like it. g**d*** imbecile. Sack of s***. kbsoftware No there WAS a point in my reference to MacOS. There point is that it's an OS that's been 64 bit for a long time. Windows is moving in that direction too, and I simply do not believe it is hard or impossible to code a x64 version of Sandboxie. I personally see very little benefit of 64bit for majority of ordinary users, but the trend really IS a move into x64 architecture, so adapting is the key I guess.

@Diam0nd... Your a freak'n idiot!

Rated 50/50 by darkwzrd1 at Sep 30, 2009

@Diam0nd, you do realize that MacOS X 10.6 Snow Leopard was just released about a month ago which just made it a true 64-bit operating system, before this release it only offer limited 64-bit capabilities. Your reference to MacOS doesn't even make any sense in the first place, since Sandboxie is Windows based. If your so brilliant Diam0nd, why don't you personally code a similiar application with 64-bit capabilities. Let me guess? You don't have the slighest clue what the hell your talking about. You need to get a life or maybe a girlfriend...

darkwzrd1: And I should assume YOU are the expert on this, ass-wipe? My comparison to MacOS was not about simply comparing apples and oranges, it was about the fact that mac began the move to x64 quite some time ago, windows is now following and THUS saying that x64 sucks and ms sucks is not a valid reason not to code x64 sandboxie. I was talking architecture, and nothing else. So kiss my arse, smartmouth.
