    Exactly, I don't need no dumb Metro apps. Although in some cases it can be handy, like for Netflix perhaps. But I don't really watch Netflix on desktop or laptop.

    Glad to see everything is fine with you Bo, at least I hope so. And yes, I had some fun in the first years of Sandboxie and remember that all competitors failed? Think of GreenBorder, BufferZone and SafeSpace.

    On Win10Pro x64
    Firewall : Windows10FirewallControl - Plus Ed. (Sphinx Software). Block everything except ...
    AV real time : Cylance Smart Antivirus.
    AV on demand and scheduled : DrWeb Security Space 12 (component).
    Behaviours and folders protection : DrWeb Security Space 12 (component).

    Backup: Macrium 7 Home Ed. on internal and external HDD.
    Data loss prevention : MultiPar and TurboSFV.
    Update: Website-Watcher, to check new updates.
    Privacy : AirVPN; W10Firewall C. by domain, by site, by name; Firefox with uBlockO, Decentraleyes, Cookie AutoDelete; FastMail and ProtonMail; Qwant / StartPages search engines.


    Config done after tests with AppTimer and Firefox network developer tool.
    On my PC, Firefox start faster and load webpages faster vs. my Mac Mini, macOS 10.14 fresh install / SSD.
    OSArmor, ReHIPS etc add too much latency on apps for my taste; maybe more secure but I did my choice.

    Hi Deckard.
    Cookie AutoDelete may not be necessary.
    Read the guide:

    Hi Sampei Nihira,

    Thank you for the link.
    In fact, Cookie AutoDelete allow me to greylist some websites. Most of the time, I let CookieAD delete the cookies after X seconds without any intervention.

    It depends how often somebody closes/restarts browser. I restart main browser around 3 times in a week. It is a lot of time to catch clutter of tracking cookies.
