With Shadow Defender Is SB needed ?

I must admit I never really got on with Sandboxie - so may be missing some of its benefits.

With Shadow Defender in Shadow Mode for all drives/partitions is there really any benefit in running SB as well ? One of the problems when using Returnil is that other drives/partitions are still exposed but this doesn't need to be the case. The ability to exclude or commit also seems to get around the you can't save argument.

So as SD doesn't slow you down but SB can is there still any reason to use SB ?

 

I am unable to answer your question.

One thing for sure, I am running both Shadow Defender & SandboxIE.

They are running smoothly together, with no apparent slow down.

 

Hi

I believe there is, it can stop infections earlier and can be block access to your data and you can configure it to block keyloggers and it stops malware earlier and has low level disk access protection (not sure if SD has this).

 

Sorry not to be clear. The slow down is one the first launch of IE using SB. may not be noticeable on modern machines but SB has to "set itself up"

 

Hi

On your sig, you use FF?

Thanks

 

indeed - but IE is sometimes needed when visiting some sites ( i understand that this is because they don't follow recognized standards ? or is it explorer that breaks the rules ? I can never remember).

So as per the sig - yes I'm happy using FF without SB but occasionally give it a go. At the moment I'm installing a new pc - faster everything - so when I get around to it I will try SB again. The more I use SD though the more impressed I become.

I have always assume that SB was essentially for IE although it could be used with FF. Are you saying that there is no need with FF or that it doesn't work properly or ...?

 

I use both of them. Sandboxie protects my data while using computer. Shadow Defender returns all modifications.

 

ive got a low speed lap, using sandboxie does take up lot of processing, iam looking for other sandbox which dont use much of processing processing

 

maybe a conflict of softwares or maybe you have to delete the sandbox
maybe.
what is that you use for security?
did you noticed your slow down whaen surfing or what?

 

Hi

I was asking if you're using FF, why do you need to use IE? Anyway you already answered the question.
