[QUOTE="Deleted member 65228, post: 694519"] VMWare creates an isolated environment of a new OS environment. Shadow Defender isolates the existent environment. I believe VMWare is more effective when used to its full potential because of other features like snapshots but remember that data theft can occur within both of them. I doubt you will ever even run into a Virtual Machine Guest -> Host escape exploitation let alone the other sorts of attacks you're worrying about. There are malware hunters here who go hunting daily and have never witnessed this with their own eyes, and that's a lot more probable than the other things you're worrying about. If you go down the VM route, disable clipboard share and only enable shared folders with write protection enabled for those shared folders (and remember not to put any personal documents inside because as I said before, data theft can still occur).
