Sandboxie:Create A Virtual Space To Run Your Application


As a computer use most of us will experience virus or spyware attack by running untested or unknown program we have downloaded somewhere on the internet.

Sandboxie is a great program you could use to actually test your program and run your web browser securely.It will create a virtual space for you to run the application so that it will prevent the program or application to make permanant changes to you Pc.



Seeing is believing I have been using the Sandboxie for a while and is really a great program to use .

A few things I have been using Sandboxie for:
-Web surfing using the virtual space and after finish browsing,I will delete the content on the sandbox thus very secure browsing experience.
- PPstream is a great china P2P video streaming application,but bad things the program does is it will create a large tem file when is streaming the video.Hence every time I stream a video it will occupy my a couple gig of my hard disk space.With Sandboxie is really a saver after each session of streaming I would delete of the virtual space thus saving my precious hdd space.
-Testing an a untested program for virus.Run a untested application and it will list down files it created and use.After this you scan the file with an antivirus to see whether is a virus or Trojan program.

So enjoy the program that I have enjoy very much.

Sandboxie is everything you need to protect yourself from any malware. I run it in XP Pro and have had no malware problems of any sort for the last two years. I don't even use AV apps anymore as I use web based email, too. You can use it with complete confidence. Sometimes I visit dangerous warez sites just for entertainment, without fear. It's nice to be invulnerable.
