Online Armor and Avira 8 Web Guard

Made a test with Maxthon...also working...

 

Nod 3's webscanning works with sanboxed browsers. In fact you can define what is a browser or not and it will be scanned respectively.

 

You're absolutely right, but this doesn't apply to NODv2 (which has seperate modules AMON/IMON etc.) .

 

That,s a nice feature.

Does these AVs scan Instant Messengers etc as well.

 

AFAIK You can define anything that wants internet access as a web browser. It will be scanned with the web scanner first. For example if I surf with Opera inside Virtualbox then everything will be scanned through the web scanner because i defined Virtualbox as a web browser. Its the same for sandboxed browsers. I cant test an IM right now but it should be the same. Although its marked as a web browser in the settings. You can even mark Word as a web browser

 

That,s really nice!

 

Update: I tried reinstalling Avira and it didn't help. I also tried 2 other browsers (k-meleon and Opera) and WebGuard still didn't scan when they where sandboxed. Tzuk is going to look into the matter so hopefully it can be fixed.

Thanks Peter. I know I have complained before about run safer and sandboxie, but I guess they will never get along. Like I've said before, DropMyRights works fine sandboxed so I will stick with it. I'll quit complaining now .
