mickfarrar Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 A folder or drive with rights heavily restricted so all downloaded software, etc can be placed there and checked prior to use.Rights are normally restricted to stop any programs being run by accident, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bijicool Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Have you considered using Microsoft Virtual PC instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickfarrar Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 May consider vmware suppose but never Virtual PC. This system was explained to me in detail by a Unix administrator but I never got time to write it down. Will track him down & post the info.

epic Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 (edited) I would strongly encourage VMware over VirtualPC, not because VMWare is not Microsoft, it just functions better and manages resources better. However, there is an abundence of sandbox partition guides on the net. You may be interested in viewing some White Papers too.I hate to sound rude, but no reason explaining how to configure it when it's widely available.

Araknis Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I too have never heard of a Sandboxed Partition other than using a Sandbox application. These two are commercial products ShadowUser and DeepFreezeAlso there is AntiMalware A free and limited Sandbox would be Sandboxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
