I’ve got a run on CIS 5 RC to test the sandboxing options of it.
Although it has more configurations and seems to allow more flexibility, I couldn’t run Firefox + customized profile folder + Comodo sandbox.
I was discussing this here (for registered Comodo forum users: https://forums.comodo.com/beta-corner-cis/sandboxing-of-firefox-t60671.0.html).
I really couldn’t manage it. I lost all my addons and theme.
I’ve asked a long time ago a way to make exceptions to file extensions and not only for folders.
I need to open Excel files (.xlsx) of my intranet, accessing through the browser, downloading it to temporary folder, open it).
I know I can save it to a non-sandboxed folder and run it from there. But it’s quite annoying.
I know I can manage (customize) the temporary folder for Internet applications. But this won’t help, as all files will be there and I don’t want to un-sandbox the whole file. I just want to open Excel files.
avast gives me more flexibility… I need flexibility. If “everything” is sandboxed, I can’t browse like I ever did.
For protection I have avast and Comodo Time Machine
