Ok, so that just inspired me to ask Dear Dailydavers how many of you
use, for a *daily* browsing, a web browser running inside:
1) a VM? (What VM product? Some VMWare appliances?)
2) a dedicated account for unsafe browsing (because OS-provided ACLs are
just good enough)?
3) the same account but with some form of manually-adjusted sandboxing
(protected mode IE doesn't count, right? :P), like e.g. OSX syscall
sandboxing ('cause it's like driving a car with a stick)?
4) An air gapped machine ;)
