Questions About Invincea Acquiring Sandboxie?
I am wondering what this means. First, will tzuk still develop Sandboxie? Second, will lifetime licenses already purchased still work? If tzuk could reply that would be great. Thanks for developing a great product for so long.
Regardless of where the chips may fall, it's been a fantastic run up to now with Sandboxie which will hopefully carry forward.
Tzuk deserves our thanks and admiration as well as the hard earned fruits of his labors.

You got it, Blues. Exactly my thoughts as well.Blues wrote:Regardless of where the chips may fall, it's been a fantastic run up to now with Sandboxie which will hopefully carry forward.

I hope tzuk stays on board. Sandboxie obviously is what it is today because of him. I dare say it could not/would not be the same without him, though I am bracing myself for that eventuality.
Congraqtulations, tzuk!
Hope to hear something definitive on grandfathered lifetime licenses.
My security setup: Sandboxie, and some other stuff.
Nothing lasts forever and a lot less good things, like Sandboxie. I believe anything that goes into a corporate realm (services or goods) are not as good as handcrafted things. What a shame.
Hopefully the lifetime license terms could be still respected.

Hmmmh, hard to say much without knowing better.
I remember when Symantec acquisited Sygate and killed the firewall.. The firewall had a large loyal user base and an active forum. That forum was soon killed too and among it all of a knowledge base.
