Sandboxie is a small utility that isolates and runs programs in a "sandbox" so program data, rogue scripts, trojans or viruses cannot access your computer (they are trapped in the "sandbox" until you approve or delete them).
The red arrows indicate changes flowing from a running program into your computer. The box labeled Hard disk (no sandbox) shows changes by a program running normally. The box labeled Hard disk (with sandbox) shows changes by a program running under Sandboxie. The animation illustrates that Sandboxie is able to intercept the changes and isolate them within a sandbox, depicted as a yellow rectangle. It also illustrates that grouping the changes together makes it easy to delete all of them at once.
This is an excellent, if somewhat novel, way to protect your computer against outside attack. By opening programs, like your Web browser, in Sandboxie those programs run in a protected state, working normally except that data cannot be written to your computer (except to the protected "sandbox").
This means, for example, you could run a game and not have the high scores recorded, or you could run your Web browser and not have the cookies saved.
More importantly, it acts as a barrier against malicious activity, trapping backdoor-type programs and preventing them from accessing your computer.
For example, when you want to install and try a new software, you can open the setup in sandboxie. All the installation will happen only in sandbox. In the end, if you are not satisfied with the new software, you can just delete the sandbox content and it will not leave any trace.
Highly recommended for software tester.
