Sandboxie Support

I would like to say thanks for this version 4.01. Although it is in beta status, it seems to me quite stable. But I'm talking from a general perspective, I mean I didn't test with nasty websites or files. I am glad that the "experimental 64 bit" option is gone. No more restarts when it is enabled fo...

Thanks D1G1T@L for your reply. And for the record I agree with you. I just overreacted I guess towards the whole 64-bit kernel patch thing. Anyway, my apologies if I did came across a bit strong or singleminded about this. I do appreciate everybit of work that goes into SBIE and I think it does an e...

It seems there is a way to disable the 64-bit kernel patch protection: If you have a kernel debugger ! got the info from an official microsoft site: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg487353 this quote is from the above link. Q: Is there any way to disable patch protection? There is ...

Well it has to do with the 64-bit kernel patching which enhances security for windows 64 bit, but at the same time restricting good software, there isn't a white list or black list. it just blocks. at least that is my understanding of it. But Tzuk himself has already made an good explanation about e...

I am not completely sure, but it might have something to do with HP (Hewlett Packard) drivers for either printers or webcams/scanners. Since I don't have products in use by HP I can't be sure about it. The location on your system for Aclmcontrol.exe would be in: C:\PROGRAM FILES\HP\Common\AclmContro...

Thanks BoredNow for your list in EMET. Indeed quite a list. I have added lsass.exe and firefox and plugin-container, iexplorer. Also I've set the DEP on opt out instead of always on. Again I'm not sure if it is okay to set DEP at "always on". It's just my own thought about it, maybe unjustified, bec...

Thanks D1G1T@L and Hungryman for the elaborate discussion and/or difference of opinion, if any. I appreciate this extra insight into the working of ASLR and other 'hardening' enforcement techniques. I think I'll stick with Hungryman about only using emet enforcement on apps facing the internet (fire...

Thanks Digit@l for the link. As I understand it, it would be more beneficial for programs running inside sandboxie, for example firefox.exe or maybe older versions of IExplorer and other legacy programs and such. Thanks for the pointer. As I also see it, if doesn't really help in this case, would it...

Hello, Recently I've been looking into Microsoft EMET 2.1 and it seems a rather interesting way to hardening software or enable permanent DEP/SEHO/ASLR on apps that can work with this. I know not every file/program is compatible with forced DEP or ASLR and such, but its a bit of trial and error to f...

Hello Helper and Tzuk, Thank you both for your prompt and fast reactions. Very much appreciated. :D But as usual I jumped the gun, so to speak and I did a totally new and fresh install of my Windows installation. Again I installed SBIE and everything works as intended, including everything with "Dro...

Hello, First of all some info about my system: OS: Windows 7 64-bit (updated to latest updates). Sandboxie version: 3.68 (stable) and registered. - Experimental Protection (64-bit) Enabled and rebooted when enabled for first time. Other security software: Bitdefender TS 2012. Malwarebytes (on demand...

In the end its all about trust. If you're keen on security and read all about the latest security procedures to be taken to be as close as possible to 100% safe computing...... man it is just mindblowing sometimes. Knowledge is power but also provides more choices or perhaps even more paranoia. Call...

I joined this forum very recently, I believe a couple of days back. Before then I wasn't really into Sandboxie or other kinds of sandboxing/virtualization of any kind. But already I think I know a little bit who's who on this forum and have read quite a few threads already and I must say I like the ...

ello bo.elam, I think you're absolutely right. I've ditched DW and currently using sandboxie and eset smart security, malwarebytes.. occasionally dr.web. but mostly I have a very clean system thanks to SBie ! I'm just beginning to understand how powerful the settings are in sandboxie and even more s...

Hello SnDPhoenix Thanks for the pointer about making an image and installing windows 7 with SP1 already in it, but I still have the original ISO from microsoft before the service pack 1 came out. But I agree with you, I should make an image of my system :) It's just that those things I usually postp...
