Thanks. Yes, I try to run ONLY proggies that do this. Eudora, TBird, FF,
Eraser, CCleaner, Belarc, CPUID, ESET (mostly), Everest, HMonv113, RKR171.
Just my style........... :)

Can you define "DOS"? My read is ANY Windows OS has a DOS GrandFather.
Sorry, I missed this one............. :)

Sandboxie sounds a lot like *DOS* full circle.
I loved things not being dependent on windows to run. easier to get rid of too.

I use it as well and love it. One great way to keep nasties from your
web browser from getting into the rest of your system.
There's a great episode of the Security Now! podcast dedicated to it.
Be aware that it is not compatible with Vista/Win 7 64-bit due to the
way they changed the security architecture.

Zool,
I have it; have kept it up to date, but have never tried it yet!
Sandboxie.com comes highly suggested on the ESET/Wilders security
forums.
However, I suspect that many/most of the shares on this forum might
have bigger "tin-hats" than I. I just do not know.
Much of this "virtual" area stuff still leaves me scratching my head.
Although, since moving to ESET, I've been infection-free (2006).
Thanks again, Thane!!!!
