Sandboxie Support

Just LET (don't block) the connection via SBIE, instead use your good firewall to make questions/ rules. That is an interesting approach. I configure most sandboxes so that Sandboxie will allow only the programs that I list as members of the Internet Access Group to access the LAN, or access the In...

After reading the following article by Michael Kassner on Tech Republic titled Flash cookies: What's new with online privacy , I decided to investigate whether any "Flash cookies" were stored on my computer system: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/security/?p=2299&tag=nl.e036 "Flash cookies", creat...

Working under the theory that if I say enough words, that I might be able to get my point across, here's a whole bunch of words: :lol: .... Since I specified on the command line that Firefox should use the profile in my "C:\Profiles\Firefox\Secure" folder, then that's the folder that this particula...

To recapitulate from previous post(s): ---- Three of my sandboxes use my own local Firefox template, which contains these lines: OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,*\prefs.js OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,*\bookmark* OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,*.sqlite* OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,*\persdict.dat OpenFilePath=firefox.ex...

".... Poor use of terminology, on my part. I should have referred to this as not allowing " direct access " to the entire Firefox profile folder, which in Sandboxie's terminology means that I don't allow 'writes' to the entire (unsandboxed) Firefox profile folder. I don't restrict 'reads' from the ...

If I may ask, what is the command line switch to use after the string in Target? I have several sandboxes and Firefox profiles. .... To keep the line in the Target box at a manageable length, I created my new Firefox profile folders at C:\Profiles\Firefox\... Otherwise, the Target line will get rea...

Guest10, thank you for answering that question. The current profiles.ini on my computer: [General] StartWithLastProfile=0 [Profile0] Name=default IsRelative=1 Path=Profiles/dq42mvh8.default Default=1 I seldom use the "xxxxxxx.default" profile, except for updating Firefox itself. For me, it's close t...

The actions listed below were effected while running Windows XP (fully current) as the OS. Before conducting the first series of experiments, I "commented out" (as shown below) the four lines in Sandboxie.ini that allow Firefox to modify or create files in its profile folder, for both (1) the sandbo...

While tzuk checks out whatever he's checking, I would like to make some comments: tzuk is wise. :-) Without Sandboxie, I can run as many instances of Firefox as I choose. It usually happens, while Firefox is already running, because I'm looking at some other program instead and use its "Help" featu...

Without Sandboxie, I can run as many instances of Firefox as I choose. It usually happens, while Firefox is already running, because I'm looking at some other program instead and use its "Help" feature, which causes the program to launch the default browser, Firefox. So then two instances of Firefox...

If a malware process is running on the same computer system as Sandboxie, then, in theory (at least), all sorts of mischief might be possible -- not necessarily involving Sandboxie. The malware would most likely search for the password file in the Firefox profile; I don't know whether that data is e...

Thanks, tzuk. I don't know whether any of the executables that I choose to run in a sandbox, when at least one of them accesses the Internet, use SandboxieRcpSS. However, the sandbox for Thunderbird is configured to also serve for Firefox, so I can select a hyperlink in an e-mail message and Firefox...

At least once, Sandboxie displayed a message to the effect that SandboxieRpcSs could not access the Internet. I don't recall that it resulted in any evident adverse consequences. So, I added it (and the other five Sandboxie* services) to each of the three Internet Access groups in the [Global] secti...

The list of changes to Sandboxie for version 3.36 includes: "New Features: * New application configuration system makes it easy to activate configurations and resolve conflicts with third-party software." Can you please point me to anything that has been added to the Help & FAQ about this "new appli...

First, from looking in C:\Sandbox\ User Account at the sandbox in which I've ran I.E., it always contains a copy of the contents of C:\Documents and Settings\ User Account \Favorites. Also, the configuration for the I.E. sandbox already has -- or should have -- the statement: OpenFilePath=iexplore.e...
