Hi!
I’m using Maxthon as my default browser and i’m not a big fan of Kiosk because it just changes my habits, and i’m very attached to my habits… So i was thinking in setting my browser to run automatically sandboxed everytime i open it, but there are several restriction levels and it all seems a bit confusing to me.
I’ve already set the Firewall to treat Maxthon as a web browser, but i have no clue what restriction level i should use for it to run sandboxed or what other tweaks i should set up in Comodo. I’ve noticed ‘Restricted’ level doesn’t allow me to use clipboard, so that’s not very handy.
Any ideas please?
I’m completely open to suggestion in this search for the ‘ideal’ browsing setup.
Btw, are the downloaded files protected automatically if i run the browser sandboxed? Is my online banking data secure?..
if you want to fully virtualize your browser the easiest way is to go to tasks → sandbox tasks → run virtual and browse to your browser of choice also select the option “create a virtual desktop shortcut”
If you want to download a file outside the sandbox download it to your shared space then you will be able to access it.
yes it is safe assuming you dont play with malware in the sandbox, even if you do make sure to reset your sandbox after your done (under sandbox tasks).
