[QUOTE="Stenographers, post: 1012119, member: 97396"] Or any alternatives that would work on Linux? Windows Sandbox is a feature of Windows that gives you a disposable VM to use for checking out suspicious links or software. Personally I don't investigate malware samples on Windows anyway, but I'm not sure if I fully trust Windows Sandbox to keep my computer safe if it did execute malware. My reasoning is that it shares some resources with the host system, like copy / paste, in the sake of convenience. These little holes it pokes between the VM and the host make me uncomfortable.
