    Hi Respected Members,

    Today i have faced one problem with Avast IS 5 and SandboxIE 3.442, whenever i try to run firefox under Sandbox, my SandboxIE automatically close and delete the firefox from the sandbox environment.

    What i have noticed that whenever i set a parameter in Sandbox that none of the program except IE 8 and firefox can connect with Internet, then this thing happens. But when i remove this parameter then everything works fine. I guess its Avast Web Shield which is causing this problem.

    Is anybody here who can re-produce this thing in their test PC? Or does anybody faced this problem?

    Requested to please let me know...And any suggestion for me is also highly appreciable.

    Frankly speaking, I don't really rely on that !!

    For me SandboxIE is far more superior than Avast Sandbox.

    One more scene re-produced...

    Whenever i try to download some missed samples of malwares which are inside in a password protected from my yahoo email, i am getting an error SBIE2305 Out Of Memory, but whenever try to download a clean file from internet then i am not getting such error. Its confirmed that Avast is creating an issue...:ouch:

    I can't see where there'd be any conflicts, not to mention this pairing worked fine for me a couple months ago.
