[QUOTE="Deleted member 65228, post: 715657"] You don't need an external sandbox component, it's not mandatory. Some people like to use one. You have Kaspersky Total Security which comes with a safe browser you can use when browsing online; Microsoft Edge is also quite secure by default and they use AppContainer - AppContainer isn't like using an external sandbox but it is still beneficial. The Kaspersky safe browser does more than prevent key-stroke interception, it also prevents screen capture catching the browser (it'll display as black AFAIK) - they also use virtualisation for it. Kaspersky Total Security also has Application Control... I'm sure [USER=36043]@harlan4096[/USER] can provide more insight into this among other good features of KTS. You also have an anti-executable. Regarding Internet Explorer, don't use that anymore. It's old and obsolete now. Do research on new downloads, don't download from untrusted sources and don't be click-happy. If your current configuration is not sufficient enough to protect you then nothing will. Your own actions are just as important. More security software does not equal additional security all the time. There's no golden ticket to being invincible. [/QUOTE]
