"Applications" failing to initialize

[TNT]

Tzuk, I am trying the 2.79 beta version of sandboxie and I found what it seems to be a bug.

Note that I'm using it to collect malware samples from sites. Surfing on (WARNING: MALICIOUS SITE) 85.255.118.43/data/title.html with the old 2.64 version on a vulnerable IE, a file is executed and lots of malicious files are pulled down from the sites. However, with 2.79 it immediately stops when the first file is executed, with an error message saying that the file failed to initialize. This happens on other sites as well.

The same thing happens if one tries to execute this file manually. Let me know if you need me to send the file.

I get a blank screen with a dot at the upper left corner, and although dexplore.exe is launched, nothing else happens -- I don't even an error message. So yeah, I would need the file to look into this.

Hmm... that site's exploit works only if IE is not patched, however.

I don't even an error message. So yeah, I would need the file to look into this.

I uploaded here: http://supload.com/sendfile/download.ph ... UMsw25TIYS (zipped with password "infected").

I'll take a look.

Tzuk, were you able to reproduce the problem, or does it seem to be a problem with my configuration?

Thanks again for the support.

I had no trouble reproducing this. And fixed it. I will release 2.79.1 later today.

Cool.

Worked perfectly.
