Basically, it isolates the application from the operating system. You can't do so much in the GUI but using the sandboxie.ini you can block ports, internet domains, executables, partitions, folders, set read-only path to folders and registry keys etc.Sandboxie runs your programs in an isolated space which prevents them from making permanent changes to other programs and data in your computer.
I recommend you guys this little piece of software.
HOMEPAGE
Been using this since I found it back in 2007. Excellent program when you often try lots of "colorful" executables like I do, or you just don't want junk in your real system.
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
Had this but never really bothered using it since most things I run on my computer are more or less from verified sources and the rest are taken care of by ESET's Smart Secure. A nifty tool nonetheless.
I recommend you to give a shot on Trustware - BufferZone-Threat Free Internet
Login failed!
Username or password incorrect.
If you've forgotten your username or password, you can recover it here.
Pickle, could you share your experience please? Is BufferZone safer or has other advantages comparing to Sandboxie?

Personally, I have heard you are able to bypass Sandboxie. It is bugged too, apparently. I have been using it for a while, but recently quit.
I would recommend using a VirtualBox VM and test things inside there, instead of using Sandboxie.

Maybe they fixed bugs?:)
Gapo: it's not flawless, but it uses much less resources than a VM.
