RE: SandBox for windows

Hi Arjuna,

For freeware you might want to consider Sandboxie (authored by Ronen
Tzur in Israel) (http://www.sandboxie.com/).  It prevents malware from
writing to your system in most cases, it's recommended by SANS, and it's
free.  

Also you may consider freeware from Bufferzone (from Trustware in
Israel) (http://www.trustware.com/virtualization/free.html).  Check
their online forum for any questions you may have on compatibility and
stability.

Be aware freeware has limitations; they may not prevent malware from
reading sensitive data, or all keyloggers, or block access from the
sandbox to local network services.  First read their FAQs, forums, and
comparison tables before installing.

You can also download eval versions of paid software for a limited
amount of time.  If you contact support they often issue additional
licenses for longer usage periods.

You might also check out DefenseWall (http://www.softsphere.com/ by Ilya
Rabinovich somewhere in the ex-soviet bloc) - $29.

All three solutions listed above are geographically close to Italy.

GreenBorder has evaluation software available, but not freeware.  We
have a consumer version and a centrally configured 'Enterprise' version.
See http://www.greenborder.com for product and marketing info.  We're
going to launch a beta today of a vastly better Enterprise release which
also would work well for a small home network, later today I'll post to
the beta announce list and to beta forums.  Beta access can also be
requested though 'beta at GreenBorder.com'.
