    Hello,
    I read topic and watched the video but I couldn't find any bypassed.
    It was just temp files which can be easily remove by any temp cleaner ( CCleaner, Ace Utilities etc..).

    So whats the purpose of Comodo sandbox then ?!
    Where is the sandbox in Comodo if files remain in the sistem and need to be cleaned with C Cleaner ?
    Why arent the dropings going in the sand ?

    Never saw any leftover temps while using SBIE after a browsing session.When i click Delete Contents everything goes.

    I use KIS with SBIE and don't think I'm COMODO fun. What I see in the video is that Comodo Sandbox works when an unsigned application try to run.

    Let me say so...
    You download a nasty virus which you don't know about it and you think it's safe application. You try to run and launch it but it will be sandboxed by COMODO and your system is safe! How can your system be infected by virus when it can't run outside COMODOs' Sandbox. it's very simple. it can't.

    I think Comodo Sandbox do the job and the important thing is that don't allow malware to run outside sandbox which Avast Sandbox let the malware to do that. :rolleyes:

    Well, I consider my contact with Petr Kurtin, the Avast! sandbox developer, as very good. And I can assure you he appreciates feedback from the users. But you can also contact me, and I promise you I will forward your feedback to him :)

    Petr's email address is available for Avast! forum members thru his profile, but I don't think I should give/pm/post it here withought his approval. What I can do is email him, so that he will be aware of this topic and your questions/issues.

    Sorry for slightly off topic.

    Please check Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 sandbox (Safe run via right click) and virtual desktop (Safe run for applications) for reliability. Waiting for result...
