Sandboxie, the Virtual Machine-Like Program
What is Sandboxie?
- Sandboxie is a standalone
secureprogram that is used to test programs before running, usually to see if it is binded with malware.
Is it safe?
- Sandboxie is a safe download. You will not be infected unless for some odd reason you are stupid enough to download from other than the vendor himself, Ronen Tzur.
Reality: Why are you making this thread?

Sandboxie is easily BYPASSED now. It is no longer a 'proprietary program,' in which you will remain safe. Sandboxie was originally fine, with minor problems such as Stealers still being able to steal information, however now people are able to get infected, and should not be directed for Sandboxie on a normal basis!!!
How, Why, Obvious reasons that it is no longer useful as it was.
- Look at the average crypter on any hacking site, IE: HF. Most crypters come with the function, 'Anti Sandboxie,' and if they don't, every RAT has one itself, if it's a good one. When the server is not FUD, it'll be protected when ran in sandboxie, but if crypted; then run in sandboxie, it'll fail to protect the user and they'll be infected
Sandboxie can work well, though!!
Running Sandboxie stand-alone on an operating system will leave you infected, Why?
- Malware is often coded to detect if Sandboxie is on a computer, or a virtual machine. If the malware detects it's on a computer, it'll activate, if it detects Sandbox is running on a VM, it won't activate, because it'll sense that it is not going to be stealing any info, as it is being tested.
What's your next move, when someone asks about a file?
