Protect Your Computer By Running Applications in Sandboxie
The Windows utility Sandboxie runs applications in an isolated environment on your computer so you can protect yourself from malware, surf the web, and maintain your registry without affecting your host system. You can run a number of applications including Firefox and Outlook to protect your privacy and keep viruses and other potentially harmful changes from messing up your Windows machine.
Sandboxie is a good alternative to setting up a virtual machine, especially if you just want to run a quick test or two without having to wait for an entire operating system to boot up.
