Sandboxie and P2P

[system]

Hi, I’ve recently downloaded,and been using Sandboxie.This program seems to absolutely brilliant.I cannot understand why everyone is not using it.I have never used a P2P program,and I am thinking of dipping my toes in.Would I be right in thinking,that if you used the P2P program sandboxed,you could download files,and scan them with Avast and antispyware progs before recovering them to my documents.Does anyone else practice this procedure.

There are some P2P programs that run at non-admin account (like an automatic dropmyrights) like emule. Scanning the file with avast at the end of download could do the job. Of course, sandboxing could go further, preventing any malware action.
