    Hi everybody,

    I've just uninstalled my Outpost Firewall Pro to replace with Online Armor ++ under Vista Business 32 bits

    SBIE 3.38 (paid version) program worked very well with OPF Pro. I keep the same SBIE settings with OA ++.
    When launching IE or CometBird ( Firefox browser ) with SBIE I got a blank page.

    Message from OA++ : TCP authorized for 127.0.0.1

    What can I do to solve this trouble ?

    Thanks in advance

    Yep. 3.38 is very much out of date.

    I am not sure what the fix is yet but I am running the latest versions of both SBIE and OA++ and cannot get Chrome to run properly when sandboxed. Just a blank page is displayed. Firefox seems to run OK.

    I restored an image where SBIE and OA++ were the previous versions and there were no proplems. As soon as I updated OA++ Chrome would not run sandboxed.

    Yes, it was a stupid question.

    The latest version of SBIE 4.51 is compatible with OA, thanks Cuni.

    As Peter says it is a confirmed bug and is with the OA developers to fix. A workaround is to add c:\users\[yourusername]\Appdata\Local\Google\Chrome\Application to OA exclusions tab. It will then work properly.

    Looks like the OA folks still have not fixed this bug, I have the latest version. Does adding this exclusion into OA mean that Chrome would NOT be protected by OA?

    Thanks,
