Sandboxing of Firefox

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.

Is there any way to exclude files of sandboxing?

Use sandboxie…!! :wink:

For some reason, I gave up on it before.
Will give it a try. But I don’t think it has the feature I’m looking for.
Thanks Asyn.

No problem…!
It’s a good sandbox, imo… Just test it.

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 :slight_smile:

Thanks for the effort… but sandboxie does not have the minimal features I need/want.

Ok, Tech…!
If you don’t need it, we forget about it… :wink:

This said I gave up with CIS 5, so I can’t tell about the RC that I didn’t even try.

Exactly the same behavior :cry:

I respect you persistence, but maybe it’s better to give in here.
At least at the moment… :wink:

No, I won’t stay here.
avast sandbox is BSODing my computer.
And avast support for this problem is a crap.
I’ve posted a long time ago…

aswSnx.sys
0x00000050 (0xBEE79024, 0x00000000, 0x8B922512, 0x00000000)

Problems…

all I can say is that the Avast sandbox works much better here on my system than CIS 4/5 sandbox does… ???

See reply #7.

You can use GnuPG…

Sorry Tech,
as I have had no problems with it, I can only give you this advice…
