[QUOTE="shmu26, post: 708212, member: 37647"] I think I know what the problem is. The restrictions of the isolated environment only apply to the specific application that is tied to it. For instance, if I open isolated Word, I cannot browse from within Word to a doc in real user space, in order to open it. I have to find the doc in Windows File Explorer (or equivalent) in order to open it. But, and here comes the big but, files located in a ReHIPS user folder are NOT restricted. If I execute malware from a ReHIPS user folder, it will trash my whole system (that is, if I click allow in every prompt that appears). In this way, ReHIPS is unlike Sandboxie. SBIE is virtualization, but ReHIPS is not. [/QUOTE]
