SandboxieReflector is a small application that lets you reflect some pre-specified commands (via a command line) into a designated sandbox, even from inside another sandbox. This can be most useful if certain actions inside one sandbox must be executed inside another one. Concrete examples of this are e.g.:

Activate applications in other sandboxes
You have two sandboxes; one for your e-mail application and one for your browser. You now receive an e-mail with a link in it which you want to visit. But you want to run the browser in it's own designated sandbox. For better overall security reasons, Sandboxie however will run the browser in the sandbox of your e-mail application. This will result in the e-mail application's sandbox being "polluted" with e.g. the Internet cache of that browsing session.
Install application with file associations inside a sandbox
You have installed application X in it's own sandbox. Application X is thus not known to any applications outside of that sandbox. To start application X, you can use Sandboxie's "Start.exe" functionality, but again, if this is called from inside another sandbox Sandboxie will want to run application X in the sandbox you are currently in. Needless to say, application X is not known there so you're out of luck.

Thanks for posting Skudo12. It is a feature I've always wanted to see and it has been requested a few times. Hopefully Tzuk will build something similar into the product eventually but a nice add-on meantime.

Cheers
