Is the default SandboxIE enough?

I am not that familiar with the rules for SandboxIE but I have been playing around with the settings and have managed to find some more rules to add....

ClosedFilePath=!firefox.exe,\Device\Afd*
ClosedFilePath=!firefox.exe,\Device\Tcp
ClosedFilePath=!firefox.exe,\Device\Udp
ClosedFilePath=!firefox.exe,\Device\RawIp

I added those right after the default

OpenKeyPath=firefox.exe,HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Mozilla Firefox

rule. I am only interested in being able to recover files I download to another drive, so that said, I only have the path to that download folder under the recovery options.

Anyways, are the default rules plus those other four enough or have you SandboxIE users come up with some more?

Some of the beta testers are having a look at some extra ini settings with plans ahead for Sandboxie being able to set these extra ini lines through it's gui.

You could keep an eye on the "Anything Else" topics at Sandboxie's forum.

Last page of a thread discussing those extra ini settings.

Yeah Pete I saw somewhere around here that you added a "ClosedFilePath" to the "My Documents" or something like that.

Thanks again Pete

Thanks Franklin for giving me that information, it has been very helpful. I've learned how to secure the .ini file even more than default.

Peter, can you please explain exactly what this accomplishes, where to enter it and if this is the exact entry less the quotation marks "ClosedFilePath=%Personal%"? Thank You!

 

Got it, thank you!

 

Doug Knox, the guru of windows tweaks via vbs * reg files fame, has a nifty little compiled tool that lets you RENAME My Documents/My Computer etc.

I wonder if something as simple as a name change would throw an intrusion/spy off the track in the same way, or not.

BTW, my thanks to for the tips on Sandboxie. I'm getting to really like this program more each day.

Well, having GREAT faith in Doug's experience with Windows, i went ahead against caution. I'm pleased to report there are absolutely no ill affects whatsoever.

Being the Customizing fanatic i am coupled with my fierce distaste of $M's mockery of artistic values, or lack thereof themselves, i press on when it comes to decorating the screen.

We can now SAFELY rename a few System Icons courtesy the tool and do away with the repetition.

I haven't tested Sandboxie yet to see if it regards the name change but i suspect it will still consider My Documents as just that, and so on.
