[QUOTE="n8chavez, post: 1118747, member: 90863"] Well, I just block the directory used by my browser for downloads from executing. Actually, it's the direction Sandboxie plus saves downloads to. This way I have to make the conscious choice to move that file and execute it. The key is that it's my choice, not some downloader/driveby. I have used OSA in the past. It's very good too. But I found myself adding way more than needed exclusion rules, since each execution uses three rules. My exclusions.db contained like 200 rules since I like scripting and automation. OSA is too granular. I found VoodooShield (now Cyberlock) was a better fit for me. Plus [USER=62850]@danb[/USER] is a cool guy and he gave me a really great deal that ended up being a lot cheaper than OSA. Oh, good call! I'll have to look into those. I use Bitwarden Premium, and I doubt they'll be breached. Still, I'll look into yubikey, [/QUOTE]
