AutoSandbox Test Tool

[Dieselman]

Hi guys,

In case anyone is interested, here's a test tool that you can be used to test the avast! autosandbox feature.

http://public.avast.com/dev/autosandboxme.exe


It's a tiny program that creates a file in the root of disk C:\ and in the registry Run key.
Avast should trigger the autosandbox feature on this file, so you can test whether the feature is working as expected (in the latest version 6.0.1091, it should work on all supported OSes). If the file is not autosandboxed, there may be some problem.

Thanks
Vlk

Not unless you have a sandbox tool you don't.

Just tested the autosandbox tool in laptop it works when it try to modify the system no any trace found.

 

[Dieselman]

Exactly how did you test it james? Your current config does not have a sandbox.

You don't need a sandbox, you need Avast 6 to be installed (with AutoSandbox enabled). Since it's tool to test the AutoSandbox.

In other laptop were Avast was installed there just to make it clearly.

The signature is from desktop.

You can run the tool inside a sandbox to see of the tool was actually allowed to modify your system. If so your sandbox failed.

When I run its have a red bar around the tool and when it modify it failed to add especially the autosandbox text in C: so the avast sandbox was worked.
