    I would like the same info requested by Brocke. Please share with us once you have tested this program a while.

    Thanks!

    Thanks -- those numbers ARE helpful.

    Most importantly, however -- how did Spyware Terminator feel on your computer when you were surfing, or doing other stuff? Did your computer feel zippy or draggy or what? (Concerning which, what is your OS, cpu speed, & RAM size, if you would care to share that info?)

    I have Windows 7 32 bit, 4 gigs of ram but I'm since I'm using 32 bit so its 2.97 gigs. Not sure how to find out CPU speed. It feels fast except I have a feeling its causing lag in Sandboxie with Firefox.

    Try Start button > Settings > Control Panel > System icon > then click "General" tab of the resultant screen. It will show your computer's CPU information, but not much else.

    For more information try Start button > Programs > Accessories >System Tools > System Information. That gives you a built-in list of info about your computer, but it's not very informative or easy to use.

    For good, fairly complete info about your computer, download Free PC Audit -- it's free, easy/fun to use, & requires NO installation.

    However, if you want superb, THOROUGH info about your computer download WinAudit -- also free, and requires NO installation.

    NOTE: since neither of the above apps requires installation (they are "portables), all you have to do to install them is copy them to a file folder of your choice. If you decide you don't like them then all you need to do is delete their folder & POOF! -- they're gone.

    Sounds about right for a fairly new computer. Nice fast machine you have there! Waaay faster than my old darlin' (special made for me 3-4 years ago).

    This is a program that I want to use but unfortunately as soon as I start
    FF Sandboxed, issues begin to happen. If no Sandboxie is in the picture,
    my browsing is really nice, fast and no problems at all.
    This Version is the second install that I have done this past 2 weeks but
    unfortunately I experienced sames issues as when I installed ST earlier.
    If I was not using SBIE the whole time, definitely would use this program
    because I believe is very good but I am not willing to give up using SBIE
    in order to use ST. I would add ST but not subtract SBIE.
    When Sandboxed my issues were extremely slow opening of the browser
    and pages freezing but did not experience any slow down when browsing.
    Another issue was, some downloads would take 15 seconds before it started
    to do the download. I had none of this issues if browsing was unsandboxed.

    Bo

    I unfortunately had to uninstall Spyware Terminator. The slow down with Sandboxie was getting annoying and it took 30 or so seconds to start the browser sandboxed. Pages were lagging at loading and I had the "firefox is not responding" message appear when some pages were opening.
