Sandboxie Review
Posted by malwarekilla in Anti-Malware Reviews on 01 9th, 2009 | 11 responses
Yesterday I reviewed Sandboxie and as I expected, it completely rocked! Sandboxie allows you to run your
browser in a virtual sandbox, thus isolating anything downloaded intentionally or unintentionally (drive-by
malware infections for example). If you browse the internet using Sandboxie you'll never have to be worried about getting infected by malware since all malware will be trapped in the sandbox. When you finished
browsing the internet you simple close the browser and empty the sandbox.
Go watch the Sandboxie review on my YouTube channel now!

what up matt. your reviews are really good. Just one question. which one is better defensewall or sandboxie? i just want your opinion. thanks.
you rock man!!
@darshan – personally I like DefenseWall. It’s total control. Sandboxie is a great intro to Sandboxing, however IMO DefenseWall is a step above.
About all these great apps, it seems that only Comodo is available for 64 bits systems.
Sandboxie + Comodo Internet Security proves useful on 32bit systems, Like if malware jumps out of the Sandbox you know you have CIS to Prevent it.
IMO, I don’t think you even need Sandboxie if your using CIS… But using Sandboxie with or without it is good. @Ricky Tron it is hard to find 64 bit apps.
With Sandboxie you can run not only your browser but you can run Windows Explorer, e-mail reader or any other program you want sandboxed. Sandboxie also adds to Windows explorer a option ” Run sandboxed” so you can ran any program you want in the sandbox. And oh Sandboxie is free to try for 30 days , after that it appears a nag screen to buy a license , nah the developer needs to get some support from you , but you can use for as long as you want Sandboxie with the nag screen when it starts no other limitations.
Matt, do you have access to defensewall discounts? i’ve lost my job due to recession and cant afford it…
I agree – DefenseWall rocks! Great application i like it more than Sandboxie.
@ankit- I have such the access.
@ankit – I think Ilya might be able to hook ya up.
I had high hopes for SandBoxie BUT.
I installed it the first time and everthing seemed to go well, But later I noticed that all of my system restore points were gone. I blamed it on something else and spent several weeks uninstalling, cleaning and house keeping.
During this time I have created numerous restore points and have not lost a single one………
Today I started reinstalling various programs. I continued creating a new System Restore Point both before and after each program installed. Then I reinstalled SandBoxie.
AND THERE THE PROBLEM HAPPENED – - AFTER SANDBOXIE WAS INSTALLED EVERY SYSTEM RESTORE POINT WAS REMOVED.
I can’t understand why and NO for warning……….
this is a piece of crap i got this stupid virus from a site and i cant remove it
