    Its not really a security app J, it just makes your apps portable like VMWare thinapp, well not in a sense.

    You can be sure it is much lighter than a suite like KIS and NIS, and very safe.

    The Sandboxie consumes less than 30MB of RAM, and virtually nothing of the HD processor. Shadow Defender is extremely light, I could feel it in my system. The Mamutu is also very light.

    It's safe and lightweight.

    dont think you do online gaming with sandboxie. The servers are already so much full of poo any firewall or anything else think about having a sniff at its packets and your latency kills you lol

    Anyways I got nothing on my pc valuable. maybe hackers will see my almost next to nothing security and go for the guys with all the huge security setups coz surely they must have something valuable they are protecting

    Nothing yet, but I'm probably going back to OpenDNS since I do have an account with them and it worked pretty good when I used it. Currently using KIS 2012, its a lot lighter than expected and I like the new interface.

    well if you read his post he is not running malwarebytes pro in realtime. he doesn't even have any realtime AV at all... as he finds it unnecessary.
