Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit

That's weird. The only thing that would make sense is if some of your other security software blocked MBAE's service from auto-start at boot. Thanks for trying anyway.

 

MBAE 1.07 beta is now available:

Yes sir! Thanks.

 

Installed over existing. No problems so far. Like option to log protection events.

 

Installed without issue on top of 1.06. Settings, custom shields, license OK.

Thanks for all the new protections and... Logging! Shield editing!

 

Running good here too, except today when I turned computer on no icon in taskbar, not worried, 1.06 did that occasionally also.

 

In my case systray icon disappears if Windows Explorer is restarted.

 

I just installed the v1.07 beta, however the tray icon went missing....No doubt, it will be back after a reboot.

 

Its baaaack, my icon. Shut computer off for a bit, came back and powered up, back for now.

 

Those are typically due to a crash of explorer.exe. It is normal that some system tray icons go missing.

 

Cool, will check it out.

 

I installed 1.07 on Windows 7X64 as a new install 2 days ago, and I have not experienced any problems so far.

 

Thanks for all the confirmations and good news so far!

 

No problems here either.

 

No 'problems' here either but I have to say I was let down, It's only showing what was protected...not which protections were applied like before. =( It's essentially just a log of the pop ups you'd normally see with 1.06 but I had hoped for the information that was previously available in 1.05 and below- eg bottom up aslr etc. It's certainly NOT what I had in mind. The current 'optional' log is useless IMO, it doesn't *really* help me verify protections are being applied properly with my unique setup (sandboxie and template) nor would it really aid others with theirs IMO. It's all such and such is protected...yeah the popups told me that already but what's being done, doh!

I'd still need to revert to an old version to verify this information and there's no guarantee there won't be a bug down the line requiring an alteration of the template or a fix in either program.

Any chance a secondary option for specifics could be added/included attached to that one?

 

No issues here too...
In previous version I had an annoying problem on IE11 hanging very often and forcing a closing from task manager. Not seen this in current beta version.

 

A workaround might be to select the "Launch folder windows in a separate process" option (Control Panel --> Folder Options), you will then see two "explorer.exe" instances running, and if it crashes it will often keep displaying all tray-icons.

 

When playing Minecraft under Sandboxie and a screenshot is taken and opened directly within the game, Minecraft is closed with the next message:

Spoiler

When played unsandboxed it's just fine.
Fwiw, I use IrfanView as my default image viewer.

 

Why play Minecraft sandboxed in first place?

On Windows 7 x64 I can take screenshots in Minecraft 1.8.7 and open them with no issues sandboxed and protected by MBAE- might be a W8 thing.

 

I know how Sandboxie works, but it isnt overlap with MBAE protection?

In this particular case (Java engine) I would just use MBAE and be done with it.

Sometimes less is more ...

 

Good to know, thanks. In the meantime I am playing with sandbox settings hoping to figure out.

 

(For now) I don't see any need for sandboxing games or adding them to MBAE. You will only create compatibility issues. Currently I am not aware of any remote exploitation attempts of gaming software.

 

Fwiw, I use IrfanView as my default image viewer.
