    Thanks.

    I just upgraded.

    I only had a couple of minor issues that resulted from having both Internet and Start/Run Access Restrictions. To resolve getting SBIE messages, I added verclsid.exe and McSACore.exe to the permitted programs.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, if someone held a gun to my head and said, "You have got to get rid of all your software security programs except for one, only one you may keep", it would be Sandboxie that I'd be keeping. :cool:

    uninstalled then reinstalled again didn't make any change o_O still SLOWDOWN.

    Opera and Chrome now look like IE while sandboxed :mad: frustrated.

    I'd stick previous version and looking forward an answer from DEV.

    @adik & dw maybe this only affected on XP.

    Installed over the old version. Except after about 10 minutes browsing (no slowdowns) as I closed the browser, it bluescreened.

    I've thoroughly uninstalled the whole thing, and did a clean install of v3.46... So far so good. If it bluescreens again, I'll go back to the older one and let you all know.

    If this means that now the 64-bit version is just as secure as the 32-bit version, then I remain sceptical. I mean there was so much criticism and, dare I say it, whining from some developers that such programs can never be as secure on 64-bit OS as they are on 32-bit ones due to that naughty PatchGuard. If memory serves right Tzuk said he'd never create a 64-bit version since it just can't be as secure.
    So which one is it? Are we being lied to that the 64-bit version is as secure or did we have a gigantic overreaction from the developers? I don't mean any disrespect as I'm well aware that the product is very solid, I just want to get to the bottom of this.

    Thanks for the update, No slowdowns here, I uninstalled and reinstalled. (Windows XP Home SP3 32-Bit)



    @Night_Raven - Looks like it refers to compatibility, Not security.

    Sorry to be Mr. Negative, but I disagree. It just shows that after 10 thousand people moan at him because they have upgraded to 64bit, he will suddenly decide to stop moaning about 64bit and actually make an effective program.

    That being said, going from crying about 64bit to actually coding a 64bit Sandboxie is a good change of heart. :)

    Installed it as an upgrade on top of the existing one.
    Windows 7 Pro x64.
    No slow down and no problems.
    I love this software.
