# in window title

As you know, there are some malwares that know they are being sandboxed and refuse to run.
I vaguely remember reading somewhere that if you choose the option to NOT include the hash-tags (#) in the window title, that they are fooled into thinking that they aren't being run within Sandboxie?

Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
SandboxIE 5.2.1.2

False. Most malwares do other kind of checkings to know if they are running under Sandboxie.
