And not only is it useless with anything other than web browsing in a glorified incognito mode, the claim of confining threats to the sandbox environment and restricting everything to a virtual environment is a load of rubbish. In a few minutes mucking around with it I've managed to create persistent drive mappings outside the sandbox from inside the 'protected' browser, share the PC's entire hard drive to the world, as well as access any and all personal data of the user running it. And I'm not even a hacker.
Any web browser's built-in sandboxing architecture is far better than this already. Snake oil IMO.

Of course you can fiddle around on your little PC and create whatever you like outside the sandbox from inside.
YOU are in the driving seat and have the key to the sandbox door. What a daft thing to say.
Try your blockbusting brilliance in devising a program which when sent to another sandboxed PC has the ability to independently exit the sandbox and reveal all those goodies you so proudly state to the world. Now it is your turn to talk more rubbish, because you cannot do it !
Send your stupid post to the Sandboxie Forum and let some really intelligent users enlighten you on how things work.
I have a good mind to copy your post and submit it to Sandboxie myself. It is the most irresponsible load of rubbish I have ever read on countless Forums and hundreds of posts concerning Sandboxie.
Good luck with your Snake Oil, hope it works for you, I think I will stick with Sandboxie.
