Hi Arthur:

I recently saw a video clip on the use of the program. It does seem very effective.

I recently came across a free program called Sandboxie which enables you to
run any program inside a sandbox, so that said program is unable to make
any changes to your computer.

To find it, just Google "download Sandboxie" and you're there.

The following link provides a brief description of Sandboxie and how it
works. A particularly cool feature is its integration with Windows
Explorer: when you right-click on a program name, the menu includes a new
option "Run inside Sandbox".
