klikster Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 In looking to back up my (legal) W7 "Security Essentials", I downloaded Comodo Internet Security. Problem is, when I try to open Chrome, sometimes it won't open. I have to open Firefox first then Chrome will open. I really do like the 'drag and drop' area for checking batches of files. Anyhow, I was wondering if there is an even better free tool for rooting out malicious scripts that may tag along with downloads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justsumhelp2 Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 You can run any application in sandboxie that you don't trust, things to look for are modifications to the registry and dropped DLL's http://www.sandboxie.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
