Re: Sandboxie - A Virtual Protection

A quick look at the FAQ section of the Sandboxie website:

Quote:
Do I need other solutions if I use Sandboxie?
Sandboxie may be your first line of defense, but it should certainly be complemented by the more traditional anti-virus and anti-malware solutions. These solutions can let you know if your system does become infected in any way.
Typically, those other solutions employ various forms of pattern matching to discover malicious software and other threats. Sandboxie, on the other hand, quite simply does not trust any software code enough to let it out of the sandbox.
The combination of the two approaches should keep malicious software -- which is serving the interest of other unknown parties -- out of your computer.
Just reading the sandboxie FAQ's helped me make my mind up on the validity of the OP's comments.

Cheers
