Sandboxie Support

For what it is worth: Internet Explorer 7 is not the default browser on my computer. I also run IE 7 sandboxed unless it is launched by Windows Updates (I don't "force" IE 7 to always run in a sandbox). However, I have not encountered the problem that you describe and cannot duplicate it. I would su...

Guest 10, thank-you for the link to Unlocker. Frankly, though, it has some kinks in the way that it runs. I also don't like the fact that it attempts to establish an outbound TCP connection to perso123.g5.free.fr [212.27.63.123] port http [80] without any mention of that behavior in the README.TXT f...

Apparently, when I use Sandboxie Control > Sandbox > [sandbox name] > Delete Contents, Sandboxie renames the current subdirectory for that sandbox with a title such as: __Delete_Firebox_01C98AA5A6C22CB0 or __Delete_IExplorebox_01C97F5492C2792E or __Delete_Thunderbox_01C97F54EA73F77E. There does not ...

VJ, I'm too tired to respond right now. I'll post something later. In the meantime, ponder this statement which is the fourth bullet-point on the Sandboxie website Home page: Windows Stays Lean: Prevent wear-and-tear in Windows by installing software into an isolated sandbox. It seems likely to me t...

Cadillakin: VJ may be right in spite of the conflicting error messages.. Though I am not an expert with the granular details the Windows OS, I can say for certain that many times when the OS issues an error message, it's just letting the end-user know that the OS will not or cannot accommodate the u...

To quote your remarks: "Onto your problem: Sbie does NOT allow kernel mode drivers to be installed within the box. Now i dont know if your program was trying to do that or why it should try to do that, but if it was then there's your problem and solution" I don't know whether SSL Guardian installs a...

Although I upgraded to Sandboxie 3.34 (from 3.32), I did not examine the DropAdminRights feature, and did not make any changes to sandbox.ini about it, before the following problem occurred. While running Internet Explorer 7 in Sandbox IExploreBox: (1) I downloaded sslguardian-1.1.zip from the Heise...

In my experience so far, Java 6 Update 11 also does not work on every website when it is launched by Firefox 3 or by Internet Explorer 7 outside of a sandbox. So, the problem does not necessarily originate within the context of being sandboxed, although that doesn't mean that there is no problem whi...

Yes, the default limit is 48 MB. Use the Sandboxie Control Sandbox menu > [choose sandbox] > Sandbox Settings. On the Sandbox Settings panel, choose File Migration, where you can change the amount.

Hi, Since upgrading my FireFox to version 3 my Sandboxie is not working correctly. When ever i try to use sandboxie it keeps loading up my previous firefox 2 then it crashes. I've tried reinstall sandboxie 3.32 with no success. Tried checking the setting in sandboxie to find now simply solution for...

Wizard: I haven't tried this yet beyond putting it into SANDBOX.INI, but if you add the line: RecoverFolder=%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\extensions into the configuration for the sandbox from which you run Firefox, then you should be able to "recover" any new extension that you have installed,...

WA, your initial post begins: "I upgraded to 3.32 and now Firefox will not run as the default browser. ...." First things first: use Firefox Tools > Options > Advanced. In the System Defaults section, enable the checkbox to "always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" and use t...

.... You mean the statement: "When this feature is enabled, programs that were installed (or downloaded) into this sandbox will never be allowed to access the internet, even if they match the program name specified above?" Duh! :oops: How many times have I read that?!? Frankly, that statement doesn...

.... Also, I Forced NotePad to run in a sandbox, worked fine, but, the next morning when I started my computer Notepad wanted to access the WEB, any ideas on this? Thanks for your Help! You're not joking, are you? Microsoft modified Notepad with Service Pack 3, but as far as I know they did not add...

Indeed, if you already have a virus then why should you care having a virtual copy of it? The more important thing: why haven't you run that bad thing sandboxed and made no AV check ??? RE> Neither I, nor any of the multitude of AV scanners that I have ran during the past seven months, have ever be...
