Sandboxie is a sandbox product. Did you even try to terminate it? (There are many available applications that allows you to test products like CPF, Sandboxie by trying to terminate them as one of the first things a malware does is to try to kill any security app). You will see that CPF will resist terminations quite well. Some of these sandboxes (actually quite a few that we tried) can be terminated from within which is not a good thing. I don't want this to be an attack on other products nor do i want to continue on this thread but Bearbottom you don't seem to know enough technical details about how these things work so please have an open mind few suggestions we make and don't attack us back when we give you information you might not be aware of.

I pointed everyone to the comodo forum where many questions (including the ones they were asking) was discussed about launchpad and its future. I was asked to provide "personal summary" for the poster because the poster could not to be bothered to read the links I provided which had all the information and answers. I always provided more information than I was asked to do. Melih
