[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 442615, member: 7463"] [MEDIA=youtube]UztAMQCdQms[/MEDIA] Those who watched the Video will have seen that for Comodo and Sandboxie although the RCE was able to run, it was contained and flushed. Shade on the other hand totally suppressed it. This is an important point when considering how to use these products; a compromised webpage attempting to open Calc is in essence the same as a legitimate website serving up a PDF file to be opened in-browser by a PDF reader. Comodo and SBIE will allow the PDF to be opened (still isolating everything) while Shade will suppress the process. Depending on what browser you use similar potential issues with Flash when using Shade may occur, but this would be dependent on your browser (Chrome and Firefox now have Flash incorporated within themselves, so no issue here) and how a particular page renders the Flash material (no problems at all with Youtube). Obviously those already using SBIE or Comodo (both providing a more elegant browsing experience while also being very secure) have no need for Shade. However those who do not yet use any sandboxing product and want to remain very secure online may want to consider Shade. But the level of application suppression Shade has really doesn’t make it very useful outside of Sanboxing browsers. [/QUOTE]
