Am I the only one that thinks it's a bad idea to post links to viruses and to email a virus to someone you don't know? I think this thread should be erased. You guys obviously know what you are doing, but not everyone that visits this site does. I would never email that file to anyone without there...

Hi All My last test was with a simulator. This time I tested in a VM with a real Trojan Killdisk.x Man this thing is really nasty, totally trashes your hard drive.

Re: Question for Tzuk or SnDPhoenix: Testing of sandboxie

I saw on another security forum where someone downloaded a very nasty piece of malware (DFK - Threat Simulator by Morgud) and was totally protected by Sandboxie. Do either of you have any idea how many different pieces of malware that sandboxie has been tested against? Even a rough ballpark figure?...
