IP Address + Port

Post by Laz » Sun Oct 28, 2007 8:48 pm

I request that sandboxie in the future will tell you what ip address and port number an app is trying to connect to...

Why should I bother, is there suddenly a shortage of free personal firewalls in the world? :P

Yeah, quit trying to change Sandboxie into something it's not. Reminds me of Rasheed.....

:lol:

About integrating everything, personally I don't like the "Jack of trades, Master of none" approach, but that aside, there is a practical problem in what you ask for: to get the IP address, Sandboxie would have to deal with Windows networking, something it doesn't do today at all.

So this isn't "add this small feature", rather it's "add this huge subsystem into Sandboxie so you could then add this small feature."

Maybe now you understand why the general opinion in this topic, is to avoid this.
