I do lending fraud research and was working on preventing the banks, Wall st., The Fed, insurance companies, and foreign and domestic governments from looting our mortgage based assets and transferring them overseas. Our website and personal computers were attacked up to several thousand times a day from sources all over the world. I tried Linux and Mac as did my associates and they were like tissue paper as far a vulnerability to targeted attacks. Obviously the attacks stopped when the U.S. government transferred authority to private banks and foreign interests such as the Chinese,EU, and Middle east oil rich nations which of course correlates to the ip logs of our attacks. Tzuk seems to be constantly improving Sandboxie in fact he replied within hours about resolving a user permissions issue and it was I the end user that didn't have the time to reply back to him. Is Sandboxie bullet-proof? That may be relative does a bullet proof vest protect against tanks and missile strikes? Of course not and I would have to imagine high level exploits could defeat any protection especially if sanctioned by the government/banking/oil industry/insurance/military industry.

One really great feature of Sandboxie is the quick sandboxing of your browser, which - aside from giving you a completely safe browsing session - lets you run a second instance of Firefox. That means you can run two profiles at the same time (something I do on a semi-regular basis). Both Sandboxie and Altiris SVS are great choices for testing out apps before you completely install and for browsing the internet with nearly complete safety, so if you haven’t tried out virtualization as a testing bed, I’d recommend giving one of these a try. — Adam Pash Sandboxie [via FreewareGenius] [...] [...] Sandboxie is a lot like previously mentioned Altiris SVS, but since I’ve started using Sandboxie I’ve become somewhat of a convert to its no-nonsense operation.

Vista by default is set to run with Standard User privileges and the browser IE7 is set by default to run with Internet Protected Mode:ON. Sandboxie toggles Protected Mode to OFF. With Protected Mode:OFF Vista will throw warning bars at you informing you that Protected Mode is OFF & Check your Security Settings. The only way to avoid these warning messages is to open IE with Run As Administrator. So, Sandboxie runs in Vista with Administrator Privileges which is NOT Vista default. Do a google search of "Internet Protected Mode" and you'll find Microsoft info about Vista and Protected Mode:ON the above thread does not explain that Sandboxie is not compatible with Vista defaults.
