    I've been trying out the combination of DefenseWall and SBIE. I kind of like that setup, I can have SBIE protect DefenseWall and DW protect SBIE. But I have been experiencing a problem. After I installed DW, I rebooted and DW seem to be preventing explorer.exe and any processes that are launched after that from starting. I tried logging off and then logging right back in and everything seems fine.

    Any ideas?

    Are those process trusted or untrusted which doesn't start correctly? I'm running same combo but I have different kind of settings. My Sandboxie is untrusted and all programs which I run inside of it are untrusted too.

    I would assume the defaults settings are being used because I did not even have a chance to change them; all I did was reboot after install. Is there some reason why explorer.exe would be run as untrusted using the default settings?

    explorer.exe and all critical windows components are trusted by default.
