Many people think that sandboxing is difficult to use. It is, in fact, very, very simple. Here is what you do to be safe on the web, which I think is the most important. The other functions you can explore yourself.

Step1 - Download and install Sandboxie from here: Sandboxie - Download Sandboxie

Step2 - Go into All Programs, click on Sandboxie and make a shortcut on the desktop from “Run webbrowser sandboxed” (you can also pin it to the Start menu, Quick launch or Taskbar).

Step3 - Launch your webbrowser with that shortcut. Now you are safe.

I was reviewing this same program from advice from Tews.

I agree

I heard reports about this from another forum I belong to, one of the people there swear by it. I've been thinking about, I've just started using Maxthon again so will wait a couple of days before trying out something else ;)
